Kjb1150 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Hi everyone! I'm in the middle of making the decision between schools! Pace is in my top two! I hope you will post here if you're starting in 2013! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arosentel Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Hey, I just sent my deposit in. I will be starting in 2013 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bove83 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Hi everyone! I just sent my deposit in today although I am still deciding between two schools. Anyone here want to share why they chose Pace over any other schools? What do you think you will do about your living situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripes924 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I will be definitely attending Pace! (coming from CT) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arosentel Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I was very impressed with the program during the interview session. The access to all of the amazing hospitals in the city was a huge pull for me. They have so many connections for the second year rotations at tons of local hospitals. Their new lab was also very impressive, with the multiple simulated patients. Also, I've grown up going into the city all the time so I love it there and feel comfortable there. It is also only an hour and a half from home-easy train ride away. I'll probably be looking at apartments somewhere downtown-midtown, preferably east side, or Brooklyn. For me, it just seems to click. :) Good luck with your decision and I hope to maybe see you in July!~Amy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmhaddoc7911 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Hey guys! I'll be starting July 2013! Time to figure out what all we need to do. I just sent the deposit.... what now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arosentel Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I'm thinking creating a facebook group would be next. Can't seem to find one for our class yet. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmhaddoc7911 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Yeah, I was just looking for a Facebook page too... hmm... I see one for class of 2015 but I'm not sure if it's the "real one" if you know what I mean! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arosentel Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I couldn't even find that one, do you have a link?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmhaddoc7911 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Ohh, nevermind. I clicked on it and it just pulled up search results through Bing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bove83 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Thanks arosentel! Right now I am definitely leaning towards Pace for many of the reasons you mentioned. Although I would be coming from about 40 minutes north of Boston.... a bit farther than you guys and I have actually only been to NYC twice! Moving to NYC seems scary and intimidating but also exciting! Anybody else in this kind of situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmhaddoc7911 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 @bove83 ~ I grew up in Minnesota and am currently living in Memphis, Tennessee. I am coming from very far! Since I've moved across the country once already in my life, it doesn't seem as intimidating to me. Just know that it will take a little time, but you'll quickly make friends and become familiar with your surroundings :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownc2 Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Hi everyone! Looking forward to getting to know you all come July as we embark on this journey toward becoming PAs together! I've started looking into apartments in Brooklyn! Also, I'm going to call admissions and ask if hey have a particular way they want the facebook group set up. We ran into that in undergrad with some things, so that'll be up soon. I couldn't find one yet for 2015, only 2014. Really, so excited to start!

maddymoon Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Hey all, so happy to have found this thread! I just submitted my deposit so count me in! I'll also be coming from CT... @arosentel, I'm currently in Southbury so just down the road from Sandy Hook... we should meet for a drink sometime. Wouldn't hurt to have a friendly, familiar face on the crowd come July! Keep us posted if any of you find/establish a facebook page. I think it'll be helpful to have a forum to start sharing living situation resources, etc. NYC apartment hunting can be slightly soul-destroying (I've done it more times than I can count), but with a little info sharing between us hopefully we can make it as painless as possible. :-) And with a place like NYC, it's totally worth it. I'm so excited about 2013! Happy New Year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arosentel Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 @maddymoon, there is a fb group, I'm sure Brent will add you shortly! We should definitely meet up, I'm literally 7 minutes from Southbury! Find me on FB: Amy Rosentel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
