I'll be starting at Fatima in September as an International student (I'm from California) and would like to hear first-hand from current students what they think about the school and curriculum, and if you know of any students who have successfully began their 4th year in the States. Also, is there a Freshman orientation? Is the International class mostly Fil-Ams? Any information would be greatly appreciated!

We have final exams this week.. then I'm going back home to California. Where are you from?

if you have any questions email me: jonjreyes @ gmail . com

I'll be a freshman this sept too. im currently here in the philippines and visited the school. the students there that are in the foreign class seem to like it. i'm excited. from what i've seen, not all the students are fil-ams either. See you in fall. there's an orientation the first day of class (Sept. 1st). also make sure u double check when ur arriving here in the philippines because of H1N1 u have to self quarantine yourself for ten days in the philippines before arriving to the school. just a heads up.

I like the special class myself...there are lot of reasons I said so. There are pros and cons of every school but being someone who is aiming of going back to Californi and practice in the future- i think i like where I am right now..you have to be here 10 days prior to your class start date because the university is imposing the 10-day q rule..


Good luck..

hi everyone
i just wanted to know the reason why you guys/gals decided to go to PI for med school? im not inferring somethin here bec i know we all have our own personal reasons. as for me, i thought about it due to costs and bec i have lots of cousins there but my parents are strongly against it.

How much for tuition if I was to use FAFSA? Being a Philippine grad myself, would they charge me more if I use FAFSA?

.........................

I'm in the first year class! ill be there aug 18th but won't arrive at the school until the 28th bc of the 10 day rule. Do you know where you're living yet?
