MAY 2008-Acceptance Thread

[DBP]

I think the best thing to do is to call your adviser up at the NJ office and talk to them. I have my rents coming down with me and all I did was inform the folks at the office and they said they are going to take care of everything.....

Hope that helps

If you need the name and # of a reliable driver please e-mail or PM me! There is one that when my parents came to visit I used exclusively as well as whenever I needed a ride for anything. He will also do tours if you and your parents are looking for something to do while down there.

Oh nice. Looks like your semester's schedule is up on the G drive!

Check it out: MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

It says "final" but trust me, it's only a preliminary draft :P
Though, I skimmed it and it looks almost identical to ours.

Oh my goodness I leave in 6.5 hours for Dominica and I feel like I know nothing!!! How much are the duties (taxes) on your belongings once you get there? Is it roughly...$100, $200, +? Also how much do people normally spend the first day setting everything up? Can I use my visa card if I fall short on cash?

Thank you in advance I am freaking out over here!!!

Warm it up for me guys and take great notes that I can copy.
I deferred until Jan (I wanted Sept, but they said no)
Reason was I needed time to get my finances in order and publish my work.
Chubee and Blessed Dr - I still owe you ladies a beer, or fruity umbrella drink, whatever they have down there.

See y'all then.

ps - I am flying down for vacation in a few months.
