<p>if that overnight visit for the accepted SMEDs was organized, I’d definitely go</p>
<p>Hmm. For TCNJ SMEDs, I think we probably get free tuition for the first 3 years. And other financial benefits (not sure).
Does anyone know if we should still apply for Honors? and PERSIST (scholarship)?</p>
<p>Anyone wanna create a group on facebook called “SMEDs (2009-2016)” or something for those of us that were accepted and planning on going?</p>
<p>wait, do we really get free tuition if we’re a SMED? i was told i received $6500 a year before i was accepted.</p>
<p>question what does SMED stand for?</p>
<p>and i got a 6.5K scholarship plus another 1.7 K some scholarship…</p>
<p>i heard they used to give out free tuition, laptops plus stipend three years ago but scholarship money has since dwindled…ahh only 6.5K</p>
<p>soo how many are planning to attend the over night thing?
id attend if a reasonable amount of ppl are…i dont wanna be like the only one lol.</p>
<p>Hmm. Well, the scholarship money you get pretty much covers the tuition (if in-state) =/
I got 6.5k, I think, plus like an extra 1.5 i think. So around 8k ish.</p>
<p>SMED = Seven year medical student =]</p>
<p>hmm. do they still give free laptops?</p>
<p>collegeinfo91,
ahh, there’s an overnight thing? for reals? when? i want to go…
=]</p>
<p>anyone going to the open house for smeds on the 22nd? the date is conflicting with my senior trip, and my parents are actually considering making me miss senior trip just to go to the open house…i’m not exactly sure if it’s worth it, though…</p>
<p>well Dr. Shevlin mentioned it when he called first of all.
and just yesterday I got a call from a current student who is a sophomore in the program and said they would arrange one.
You can probably call Dr. Shevlin and find out?
She also said that everyone who went on the overnight to TCNJ chose it. =o </p>
<p>and dont miss senior class trip for the open house lol. You’re leaving high school and you’re gonna have 3 years at TCNJ [if you chose already that is]</p>
<p>yeah, i’m not too keen on missing senior trip for a two hour open house at a program i’m most likely to attend, lol…my parents are just being…indian…</p>
<p>i’m guessing this overnight thing should be enough of a forum to ask questions, tour the campus, etc…
any ideas on dates?
i guess i’ll just call dr. shevlin to confirm that the overnight stay isn’t at the end of the month like the open house…</p>
<p>wait…so the overnight isn’t on the night after the open house on april 22?</p>
<p>parents being indian huh. man i know that feeling lol
and is it? </p>
<p>btw…im my flip flopping decision for college im now leaning towards tcnj/umdnj lol. not that too many care</p>
<p>YAY! come to TCNJ collegeinfo!
haha. “being indian” ■■■■■. i def know what you mean dopamine.
im going to the open house on the 22nd. i didnt hear about an overnight thing. forreal?
hmm, i need to talk to dr. shevlin.
and dopamine, dont miss your senior class trip!!</p>
<p>it is an overnight visit on the 22nd (after the open house). i got a call from a current student today, and she told me about it. she said we should all get a letter in the mail soon. i’ll definitely be there, and i hope to see you guys there too! haha</p>
<p>here’s the facebook group for the program:
[TCNJ</a> SMED 2012/2016 | Facebook](<a href=“Facebook”>Facebook)</p>
<p>it’s called “TCNJ SMED 2012/2016” in case the link doesn’t work. i didn’t start it, but it would be nice to have more people in it haha.</p>
<p>yea i got that call too.
anyone thinking of staying overnight?
i mean, i wouldnt mind missing two days of school =D</p>
<p>i am so doing it.
whats this about emailing them my major…i dont even recall selecting one.
or maybe i did. i dont know lol.</p>
<p>oh i just read its a bio major.
im prolly gonna end up changing that seeing as ill be doing a lot of that later on xD</p>
<p>Yes. The stay over, and tagging along with peers night/lecture day is April 22nd/Wed night/Thurs classes. Enjoy kids! </p>
<p>The campus is looking superb with all the cherry blossoms blooming right now. Blooms will be gone but hopefully, it will be much warmer by the time 22nd rolls around.</p>
<p>so…did anyone receive the full financial aid package (not the scholarship thingy)? cuz im waiting for that and it’s not coming!!! I want to know how much fin aid both TCNJ & UMDNJ are offering to SMEDS… =) hope it’s alot.</p>
