Just curious if there is anyone else out there who is attending Case Cleveland this summer. It would be nice to get acquainted before boot camp starts

I will be attending Case D.C.! I would also like to get acquainted with classmates who are attending.
I talked to Shane, the program director for Case D.C. and he said we would be given contact info for our classmates sometime in January and February. I'm sure something similar will be done for the other locations as well. Have you been given a book list yet by any chance? I'm also wondering if you've been given any information on when we should fill out FAFSA and all that stuff too? The only thing I have on my "To Do" list is the immunization forms.

Class info would be great. I'm guessing they will send it when they have a better idea of who is attending. I have not been sent a book list, however i found the academic syllabi on the website ; http://casemed.case.edu/anesthesiaprogram/program/syllabi.cfm to be helpful in getting a sense of what they expect and what books will be dealt with. I was told to start filling out FAFSA as soon as possible however Case doesnt have their 2013 forms up yet and taxes from 2012 need to be taken care of to properly fill out the FAFSA from. I did ask the office in Cleveland for an academic calendar and they sent the one from last year and said it would be very similar. I'm not sure if that will help you in D.C. though. Good Luck! we seem to be the only Case people on the forum so far...

Hey AAinMD,
I just filled out the FAFSA form and I didn't need the 2012 tax return. From what I read on their website if school starts before July 2013 the 2011 forms are what's needed. Did I read something completely wrong or is this in fact the case? I've never filled out FAFSA so I'm no expert, but that is what I understood from the website.

Thanks for touching base! My income status from 2011 is very different than 2012 so it told me that I need to estimate my 2012 taxes as opposed to using my 2011. I guess I thought that because you eventually have to update the application with the actual and not estimated 2012 tax info than I should just wait to do my taxes before I send it in at all. You're right I should (and did) just send it now, and worry about the updates later On a side note, I haven't seen the Case financial aid form up yet although the page was updated with a 2013-2014 option. Have you found it? Thanks again

I'm in the same boat with you in that my income for 2012 was 2-3x more than my income for 2011. It didn't tell me I needed the 2012 tax return just yet, but I figure I will have to do it eventually.
I also don't see the Case financial aid form up when I login to the finanancial aid website. Ike you said I see where they have the 2013-2014 guidelines and deadlines, but i see no direct link to start their application. I'll probably wait until mid February for theme to put it up. If its not up by then ill probably call them to see what's up.
Have you been able to contact anyone from you class yet?

No I have not yet... I don't think they will release the class list until everything is finalized. They told me however, that they will send out a drug card for us to memorize and a book list very soon.
