I heard it's better and plus I'd like to live on an island I mean it's just for 16 months . I'm actually going this weekend to look for some options to lease a place.

I went ahead & created a facebook group just so we have somewhere to connect for now! https://www.facebook.com/share/g/16H1zCZYVb/?mibextid=wwXIfr

How is it on the island? Any apartments or rentals places I should stay away from?

yeah exactly & that's so exciting, good luck! 

personally, I love the island! I have heard some bad stuff about island bay apts & lakeside at campeche apts online/from friends but not sure about many other places. from personal experience, the campeche cove area is quite good besides the complex I mentioned. this is all west end info though, I'm not very accustomed to the east end so sorry that I can't help with that! I'm attaching a link to a fb group that has helped others in the past though: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1ANDUF6vL3/?mibextid=wwXIfr

I am staying on the island as well! I'm currently looking into "The Residence at West Beach". I toured it last week and it was really nice or there are cheaper housing options on the roommate Facebook forum.

If it is a science like micro, chem, or anatomy it will affect if you get in because those have to be completed before you apply, 

Yeah I was thinking that too but would it make sense to already send my denied Yk?

You heard anything yet?

Last week I received a email saying that I am waitlisted and will receive an updated email within this week. Has anyone got off the waitlist with good news?

I also got an email last week that I was on the waitlist. I haven't heard back yet, and I've called everyday but no response. My email said in the coming weeks, not within the week though. Hoping everyday that I can a spot!!

I just an email from them saying things I can get done in the meantime of being on the waitlist and that you can come off the waitlist at any time from now until the end of August. Hopefully we hear back from them soon.

Same, I just received that email as well. I am hoping that we will hear back before the end of June, just so that we have some idea of what is going on. Good luck!

For those that got accepted,for the immunizations did anyone have type in their records manually or did you upload them

Hey, for those accepted. Have yall received any new emails since the email with the new student guide? 

Have anyone heard back from the waiting list and denial yet?
