Hi all,
Just thought I'd start a thread to see if anyone else applied for admission to UMass Amherst for Fall 2012. I hear it's really competitive....I'm nervous!

Hi terryann...Do you live in Boston? What are your plans come Sept.??? "
I live right outside Boston! Do you? I'm hoping to live alone (I have a dog), but a not sure what will be affordable. Looks like in the $600s is the cheapest unless I live a little farther away. I'm going to move in August. Did people's package have anything re:registration? Mine was just an immunization form. They said our Spire accounts won't be ready for a few weeks, but I'm dying to know about financial aid! I'd love to get in on the FB group too
i also can't message people on here..so can't send my FB name

Hi Terryann...I live in Auburn. I have a dog too:) but, I own a home and am married, so I can't move out there completely. So, I'm trying to find a way to have a room a couple of times a week for a cheap price 'cause it would prob. be 2-3 a week max. I've been talking to relative, friends, etc...but still is the important word there:) Keep me posted on what you find. My package had a CORI form and immunization form. I haven't done anything with those. Did you send those in???
i haven't sent those forms back yet, i need to track down all my immunization records. but i assume it's not a super rush to get these in?

I saw your post and I am in the final stages of setting up 1 bedroom rental in Amherst. I am also in the nursing program and thought maybe we should communicate further. Can you please let me know what your email address is.

Alexandra, I accepted you as a friend on this page, but I don't really know what that does....how can I send you my email address without posting right on this site? If you don't mind posting yours or if you know of how I can send you mine without just posting directly on this site, let me know. I don't think I can send private messages yet either. Would love to talk with someone from the program though, that would be great.
Kylie
I found your school email address on the school directory or at least I think it is you so I sent you an email.
Alexandra...got it, and I responded:)

Regarding the orientation date - did you get an email or letter about those dates? I haven't received anything yet and wanted to make sure the date was set because I have a work trip that week and need to reschedule it if that is our orientation date.
Thanks.
