Ok, thank you for the information! I think we are going to get our name on some waiting lists, it seems most of the nice apartment places have quite the wait!! Unfortunately, I don't think we will be able to bring our dog with us

Yay! I'm so glad that you decided to come to IL! St Francis offered me a seat this fall since I had all my prereqs done, so I'm starting in August! I'll definitely be there, whether you come to the meet and greet or when you start in Jan.

Hey Sweet Lime!!
That's so exciting that you get to start earlier!! It's coming up so fast!! If you don't mind, where did you decide to live? I want to be close to the school but I couldn't find a nice place that was in a decent radius from the school. I want to be as close as possible because I'm not used to driving in snow and am actually terrified (I know, I better get used to it). Or perhaps you are more familiar with the area and can tell me the best place that is close? We have our name on the waiting list at Knoxville Point and Prairie Vista, but they are both a little farther than I wanted. Anyways, thank you and good luck with your first semester!!!

Hi! Yeah, its exciting, but I'm pretty overwhelmed getting all the paperwork in. Since it has been so quick, I've decided that we are going to stay here (about 1.5 hours away) and I'm going to commute and get a study room for this year and then we will reevaluate for next year. I'll pm you with some specifics

Hey, just wanted to update you... I started classes this week. So far so good! Lots of paperwork, assignments and stuff to do right away, but everyone is very encouraging and helpful. In 8 weeks we will be on the floor doing clinicals! Let me know if you have any more questions!
