    Rejections:

    AECOM: C: 10/20/08

    Jefferson and UCLA
    - Didn't have right LOR requirements for Jefferson, don't know how UCLA got on my list (no desire to move down south)

    Albany, GW, MSU
    - Favored WSU acceptance over these three

    NYMC: C: 8/12/08, I: 1/21/09, W: 1/9/0
    - Thought WSU had better program and clinical training

    Acceptances:

    WSU: C: 9/2/08, I: 10/13/08, A: 11/25/08
    - Okay program in a run-down city, horrible class size, but clinical training is top-notch. Amazing hospital facilities surrounding school.

    CWRU: C: 8/21/08, I: 11/10/08, A: 3/31/09
    - Great facilities, opportunities for research, friendly faculty and staff. City is okay, but better than Detroit. Program, however, leaves a lot to be desired. Great match list.

    Georgetown: 9/10/08, I: 11/19/08, A: 5/21/09
    - Good facilities which could use a facelift, but situated in a fantastic city. Opportunities for research and public health. Great program (best of my three US acceptances) and match list (most diverse).
