Summary of Application Experience
Graduated college halfway through the application cycle. The excitement and new season of life really took the edge off all the stress that can be experienced while waiting. This process will humble you. To all those getting in next year, work hard... never feel entitled.
I was able to save a lot of money by traveling by megabus (do not do greyhound ... costs as much as a plane ticket; smells like homlessness) and staying with student hosts.
As an international student, the process is especially challenging. I consider myself fortunate for the turnout.
Summary of Experience:
Waitlisted. Happy valentine's day! haha. I suppose you can't really have any expectations with this whole thing. Received very reassuring feedback from interviewer as we concluded the interview. But alas ...
Summary of Experience:
Was so impressed with visiting Jefferson. Not a huge fan of Philly and/or "People of Septa." But Center City is great and Jefferson is just so well connected to the community, its student body, and its mission ... I'm hooked.
