I am seriosuly considering this school for the fall. It seems very promising. Just waiting till the clinical sites are posted and the 5th semester location. Apart from that, the campus is very high tech, they seem to have decent faculty and financial aid options through CitiBank.

If one were to apply and be accepted for start date in 2009, what is the likelihood that they could postpone their admission until 2010?

Would love to apply early but really not ready to make a 15 month relo plus 5th semester and 2 year unknown location commitment until 2010.

I'm flexible with the unknowns. I can adapt to anything for a short time, Just need to tie up so loose fianncial ends, ride out the real estate slump and get psyched for the carribean commitment.

If you apply now, you will be accepted for May 2008 or deferred till September 2008. We generally do not accept students and defer them more than one semester. If you do not want to come until 2009 or 2010, it would be best to postpone the application until you are ready. Of course by then, the real estate slump may be worse and tuition may be higher. Apply now and defer until September!

Hmm good point regarding the Real Estate, but I'm an optomist. It's leap year and an election year ya know!?!?

Speaking of tuition... how much will the 5th semester and years 3 and 4 cost? Will it be the rate of wherever the clinicals are held or will UMHS offer one price point for the students to directly pay to UMHS?

Thanks

Tuition for all semesters is set by UMHS. There is one tuition for all students in any specific semester.
