They automatically award it. I was shocked because I thought the $7000 was a one time thing, but it turns out it's every semester! I can't say much about the program because I haven't started yet, but...

I was already accepted and waiting to decide. I had originally planned to defer and wait to hear from UMich but I got impatient and didn't have any realistic idea about what my chances were like on...

Thanks for the financial info. I decided to do UDM for sure. With the grants I got for my transfer GPA, I think it actually works out to be less expensive than UMich. I hope you all get good news...

I think I may cut my losses and head to U of D Mercy in a few weeks. I really wanted U of M, but if I don't get in off the waitlist I'll have to wait until January to start in U of D Mercy's winter...

Students that eventually got in? Any idea about when they heard? I am also interested in hearing what a typical week looks like. Thanks for coming on to

I've decided to defer my start at U of D Mercy to January in case I get in off of the waitlist. Perhaps if less people applied I'll have a better chance? I hope so, this program is by far my first...
Congratulations! I just got my acceptance email too. However, I'm thinking about deferring until January 2013 because I was waitlisted at U of M and want to see how that plays out. Either way, I can...

Oh, interesting...the email (did everyone get it?) made it sound like the curriculum changed to 16 months, it didn't sound like an option. I would do the additional app if it's required, but it would...
