Almost at the May 1st depo deadline!! How are you all coming along with your decisions?

I seriously don't know what to do, where to go. I'm torn between two schools. Also, waiting on four WLs. Biting my nails here.

eta: also waiting to hear back on two more schools.

How are you guys deciding? Just the amount of financial aid?

Yeah, at this point, I'm mostly down to aid. Not necessarily who gives me the most because I'd probably take USC/UCLA with less than UCI, but who strikes the best balance between total indebtedness at graduation and their ranking/employment stats. Academically and in terms of clinical programs, etc., I'm pretty comfortable with all three of my top choices.

Seriously, life would be so much easier/less stressful if I would just stick to my instincts!!

I mean i just feel like at this point we can't REALLY go wrong, as in i feel most of us have great options and its only a matter of how much debt we're willing to take on though realistically we should be fine in the long run (or thats what i'm picturing) sooooo gut-instinct as to where i would be happier is the only thing i have left to differentiate schools #DesperateTimes #DesperateMeasures

When I'm picking between schools, I think what I'll ultimately end up doing will be:

I leaning further and further towards deferment. Or just skipping deposits for now.

I have a deposit at another school. I'm literally panicking every day that we get closer to 5/1. I don't know what to do.
Yeah, don't you have a job offer in LA? This is really a frustrating process, I could see how you might want to defer.

how does deferment work? Would your admission offer still stand?

1. I think you just email Dean Reid.
2. Yes, it'll stand for the next incoming class.

Why, you too?

A couple of friends are considering it, I cant afford to take a year off :\

Just want to say I'm glad USC has been straight forward thoughout this entire process, even though it can get frustrating at times.

I have to agree with this, all have been giving me honest answers.
