Count me in for helping people move. Will be in A2 around the 15th.

Sadly I won't be able to go to MAP. Will be moving into the LC on Aug 27th. Looking forward to it!

Same here. I hope y'all have fun with it and I can't wait to meet everyone!

Now if they'd process my GradPLUS app and I could get my immunization forms in, I'd have a lot less to be irrationally nervous about.

Are the immunization forms required? I thought I read on one of the forms that the were recommended, but not required to register. Only reason I ask is because I still haven't sent mine in either.

Oh hey, you're right. That's what I get for assuming I didn't need to look at the FAQ, since they were required at my UG. Well then, that makes things easier.

What is MAP???

[ShibaDan]

has anyone heard anything about MAP? i am trying to figure out my move date, but haven't heard yet if i have gotten in.

Just heard back today - the tone of email didn't sound like, "hey, you're lucky we chose you!" it was more of a, "we're glad you decided to come". Not sure if that's accurate or not, but people should be hearing back.

Yeah, that's how I viewed the app in general. My answers were no more than a short paragraph each written the day of the deadline and after a drink or two, and I got the e-mail. I think everyone who applies will def get it. That said see you all soon! I'm moving back to the US August 12th and then to A2 on the 19th. Getting so excited, except I'm leaving my SO on the other side of the world which means I'll be pretty down for the first few weeks of school probably.

Anyone in AA having power issues?

Nope, mine hasn't gone off in the two weeks I've lived here.

One more question about loans.

I just finished signing the MPN for federal subsidized and unsubsidized loans on the federal student aid site. There is a place on there to apply/request PLUS loans. We don't need to go through the federal website for PLUS loans correct? I assumed that all we needed to fill out for GradPLUS was the request form through the Financial Aid office.

Anything I am missing here?

All we needed was that one form, yes. They're supposedly currently processing those applications, or so I was told when I called last week.

If you need to borrow a Grad PLUS or private loan, a separate application is required. A sample list of lenders along with application instructions is available on our loan comparison chart/FAQ [PDF]. Since credit approvals expire, the earliest you should apply is June 1st unless you are a summer starter in which case you should apply as early as March 1st. If you borrow a Grad PLUS loan, please be sure to complete the school's Grad PLUS loan application, not the one on the StudentLoans.gov website.

There has to be somewhere where you tell them how much you want. Not everyone is taking the maximum.

I can't tell if you're agreeing with me or no. By that one form I meant the Michigan one that he was talking about.

Any current students want to elaborate how OCI is looking? Are the participating firm #'s out on Symplicity yet?

Has anyone who bought season tickets received them? Or recall when it said they would be mailed out?

Yes, the final firm list was up yesterday. There are officially 160 firms participating, and they are interviewing for a total of about 425 office locations (a lot of firms are interviewing for multiple offices). There are also maybe 50-60 firms right now that are not coming to OCI but that are collecting resumes from interested students. I think they continue to add to this number throughout the rest of the summer.

So, it looks like my parents are coming to AA to visit 5-9 Aug. Any current students know of anything interesting to do within 2-3 hours of the city?

[Teoeo]

you can go to Columbus, OH I guess, it is 4.5 hours to Chicago unfortunately =(

[holydonkey]

You could go to Windsor. After all, Canada's only an hour and 20 mins away. It looks kind of neat - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windsor,_O ... nd_tourism
