wow! gone 5 hours, kneedeep in computer entrails, n got 3 PMs about housing situation. thanks guys!
for everyone's edification - some people (new students, be it med or premed) will, most likely, have to get housing not in the dorms.
do not be alarmed/shocked, this is a great school and the dorms can only hold about 160 (80/dorm right!?), so it's natural evolution.
first come, first serve is what most of us are thinking at this point.
NB: it is their responsibility to find housing for 1st semester students - part of their rules, so they have to do the legwork! the expense & convenience of it may change (but expense probably won't as it's on paper how much the rates are), but it will be worked out!
no one will sleep with the monkeys!;-P

ok, i guess some people are shy/quiet n would rather PM me to blast it out, that's coo! all i ask is not to be asked for the final answer! i don't know everything, and am just trying to help! however, i don't/can't lie and have good judgement, so usually am right (it's a curse!).

actually helpin 2 people applyin for september - contacted me via valuemd! any hints/suggestions/"lines" even? i have a very different style of writing/thinking, so i welcome others' opinions openly!

thanks in advance ppl, "let the good times roll!"
