You can contact upperclassmen when you get to the island. They usually sell their books near the Library on a first come first serve basis. The is no guerentee that they you will be able to find all the books however. The other option is to check the classified section of vmd.

Thanks - I am waiting on all the medical requests and documentation to give to my physician to fill out. Ross called today and asked if I had any questions about the welcome packet.
Question 1: Uh, where is the welcome packet?
Turns out in went out on Monday via regular mail, so hopefully I can get it soon.
Financial Aid I believe will be the rate limiting step. No word from them yet.

I know it's going to be difficult to find housing with a dog at this late date. But does anyone have any specific information that may be of help to me?

[jcu]

If you're starting May 2008 and ending June 2012, how do you figure having a year off?

[NYjf12]

oh, because i fugured if you start may '08 you finish clinicals june '11 the earliest, so there is a year or less before starting residency in july'12.
