Is there a store nearby the hospital that sells the dansko clogs?

Is everybody ready to start in just a couple of weeks??? I can't believe it is finally time!!

Hey Bics!! It's great to hear from you!! Yes, we are getting really close to starting!! Orientation starts on May 31st and the first actual day of classes is June 5th!! We found an apartment just 3 blocks north of the medical center. We found it ...

Thank you for the update on the Palm vs. Windows thing. I was thinking of buying the Dell Axim, but now I will wait. I have an older Palm that should do the trick for now. That does suck that they didn't tell you before hand...

I was wondering about the PDA thing too. I've been looking at them, but would definitely love to hear comments on this topic. Is a PDA needed?

Hi everyone, I received my orientation info package today and tried to sign up for an email account to no avail. Has anyone else tried and if so, did it work? I am really getting excited now!!

Does anyone know of any students living in couples housing that have pets - particularly cats?? Just wanted to hear if there are students living in the couples housing towers with pets. Thanks!!

FuturePedsNP- Congratulations on your acceptance!! Good luck finishing up your classes and I look forward to meeting you in a couple of months!!

Katie1980, I just recently applied for the signature loan. I was approved for even more than what you are looking to borrow, but the school that I am going to is VERY expensive. You can contact the financial aid office of your school to see what th...

For those of you already in NYC - are there a lot of healthcare provider BLS refresher courses offered? My card will expire in June 2006, but I do also have the community CPR that is good until 2008. I cannot find a course in the area that corresp...

Thanks for all the advice on the titers and physical. I will check with my insurance to see if it will be covered. How much was everything to have it done at Columbia?

the following is from a post in the graduate forum, hope it helps: there is a new loan coming out (those of you who have received yale financial aid packets know about it). it's called the gradplus loan. it's a new federal loan that works pretty much...

Suziechapstick - I am glad that your decision is made and that you will be joining us!! We will definitely have to all stick together, stay positive and have a great year together!! About the pre-admission physical and bloodwork. The way I read th...

Bics - you would've loved it!! It was so random and so funny!!

Art - I agree with the housing assignment delay being a problem. I am not from as far away as you (Connecticut), but it would still be nice to have the stress of knowing whether or not I will get campus housing off my mind. At least it will be war...

Hey Bics... It was great!! I really enjoyed the day. I met some great people (faculty, current students and future classmates). I was impressed with the facilities. The hospital campus is huge!! I am so excited to start!! I wish you would change ...

Unfortunately the military still excludes part of the potential CRNA population by following the "don't ask, don't tell" policy... That is the only reason that I have not re-enlisted and will be attending a private school for my nursing education i...

lb - thank you so much for all of the great info!! i can't wait to meet all of you next week!! :biere: watch out for the snowstorm tomorrow!! 5-7 inches - ugh!!

nycacoustic- Yes, I would love to meet up with you, Gretchen, and whoever else (Elizabells?) can make it for dinner. That sounds like fun. I will be heading back to New Haven that evening, but I am taking the train, so no big rush. Me and Julie wi...

I am in total agreement as well. My aid package is just about identical to Elizabells for the first year. We all knew it would be expensive, but we also all know that it will also be well worth it in the end!!! Show me the (loan) money!!

Yes - the acceptance letters are still deceivingly thin!! I really thought it was a denial letter!!

:yeahthat: well put!!

Elizabells - you're the best!! Thank you for always answering our questions!! You're right - we are already in... It keeps feeling like an interview day!! For all you NYC folk: What neighboorhoods do you suggest - and where should I stay away from?

Hi everyone!! How does everyone think we should dress for the visiting day? I don't want to show up way too over or under-dressed... I am really excited to meet everyone!!
