I just had my interview today. It was very friendly and relaxed. I also got accepted at DePaul, but Rush is my #1, so I am truly hoping they love me as much as I love them! Good luck!!!!!!

I'll be at the GEM First Look. And I got the instructions to schedule the interview at the same time as I got the invitation to the GEM First Look. I have no idea about the interviews for Summer vs. Fall. Are you guys both applying for Fall?
Anyone else applying for the Rush GEM Summer 2014 cohort? It's been a long road of prereqs to get here, hasn't it? I, for one, am very excited. And hopeful. Only time will tell. Drop a line to commiserate, at your convenience. Good luck, all!

Yes, there's a prereq for the class that I'd like to get waived. I have some convincing arguments planned :), but I was curious if anyone had spoken to him before and had any suggestions.
Hi everyone, Truman won't sign me up for BIO 226 until I talk to the department chair. Does anyone have any tips on how to approach him/what might get him to give me the okay? I haven't taken Biology since high school, where I aced it. I'm brushing u...
