Most of the folks I knew were renting particularly the cascades, the lodges, and whatever the ones on the other side of the school in the other direction are called. Some did the drive north-south bound - stayed in Albany.Any housing recommendations for Corvallis area?

Not familiar with the Corvallis area, it's been a very long time, but that city has been growing much faster than Lebanon. Fun fact, a bit while back, ever since they started the international program at OSU, rent went up across the board in the entire city at least $200 from baseline (hopefully it has gotten a bit more affordable).
The biggest problem is highway 34 which runs between Corvallis and Lebanon is full of speed traps and you can get pulled over for just prairie dogging over the speed limit. I got pulled over during 3rd year rotations because we had to drive back to campus for our CPE exams - and got a ticket on 34. Hopefully you guys don't have to do those anymore.
What did the email say? When did you get it?Did anyone else receive the waitlist status update email?
I got it about 30 min ago. It seems to be addressed to those who were waitlisted. Here’s the email:What did the email say? When did you get it?
I did not get this email! But I am on the alternate list.I got it about 30 min ago. It seems to be addressed to those who were waitlisted. Here’s the email:
Good morning,
I hope everyone is doing well. I am reaching out because we are starting to see movement in the class. However, I have had a difficult time trying to reach some candidates, so I thought I would send an email to the next applicants that can expect to receive a call.
If you are still interested in a seat at COMP Northwest below is the information that you will need to know.
1. You will have approximated 2 days to accept the offer and pay the nonrefundable $2,000 deposit. The deposit will post to your fall term account as an offset to your fall term tuition.
2. If you accept the offer, you will need to complete a background check and have a physical as soon as your deposit is paid. I will provide you the information on the background check. There seems to be a long wait to get into a primary care physician for a physical. You may need to consider an alternative such as an Urgent Care clinic to be able to complete the physical on time.
3. Welcome Week begins July 31st with the White Coat ceremony on Aug 4th. Quiet week is Aug 7th – 12th. There are few if any required activities during Quiet week. However there are usually some social activities for the class to get to each other.
4. Classes start on Aug 14th.
If you have already obtained a seat at another school can you please let me know so I can withdraw your application.
If you are interested in attending COMP Northwest it is important that you respond to this email with the best time/method of communication. I can call or email depending on your preference at a time that is convenient for you.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Congrats!Just got the call! Was accepted off the waitlist.
Thanks I appreciate it! Wishing you a ton of goodluck and hopefully you’ll hear some good news soon. 🤞🏼Congrats!
You get ~2 months off. We end 1st week of June and restart around the first week of August.Anyone know what kind of time “off” students get between M1 and M2? When do classes and and restart for the summer?
Interviewed April 28th, received WL shortly after, then I just found out I got in this Wednesday!Congrats! When did you interview?
Thanks for the info, that sounds hopeful I heard last week that we are just approaching a time when some alternates may receive offers so wasn't sure what to read into that lolI can confirm I was recently told by admissions to expect alternate list movement mid-June

grad plus loansI don’t understand how we are supposed to afford attending this school… even with the financial aid there isn’t much left over for cost of living in Oregon. Rent and gas are $$$$
Maybe tomorrow now that it’s officially “mid-June” 😂Hoping for some movement today
omg please do haha I'm hanging on to hope by threat I need to know there is still a chance. I am on 5 waitlists and I really thought "I for sure will have to make it off of at least one" Glad I haven't quit my job but I'm passing on summer vacation invites bc what if i get in somewhere and have to move my life within weeks. I am stressed.Any WL movement lately? And is there a Discord/GroupMe for accepted students? I was wondering to compare the number of people in those groups to the Facebook group 😅
I am also on several waitlists and can relate so much. I just want to be able to plan my life already!omg please do haha I'm hanging on to hope by threat I need to know there is still a chance.

There isn’t a discord yet. Looks like 80 people have joined the FB so far ( not including the admins).Any WL movement lately? And is there a Discord/GroupMe for accepted students? I was wondering to compare the number of people in those groups to the Facebook group 😅
There are also the class connections page on facebook as well, you can connect with upper classmen for living situations, advice, and items. It gets really useful later on when you need to organize for rotations. Sublet inception.There isn’t a discord yet. Looks like 80 people have joined the FB so far ( not including the admins).
Last year's class size was like 107 students so there's potentially like 25 seats left, maybe a few less to account for those who don't have FB. Why are they waiting so long to fill the class? They should let people know alreadyThere isn’t a discord yet. Looks like 80 people have joined the FB so far ( not including the admins).
I talked to Admissions today and was told that the class is currently full but they'll be offering seats to alternates if they become available. :-/Last year's class size was like 107 students so there's potentially like 25 seats left, maybe a few less to account for those who don't have FB.

Thanks for the info! Do you know if they went through all of the higher priority waitlist already?I talked to Admissions today and was told that the class is currently full but they'll be offering seats to alternates if they become available. :-/
Yeah, he said he believes that the Lebanon waitlist is exhausted and that the alternate is now in effect Hopefully that means good news for us soon!Thanks for the info! Do you know if they went through all of the higher priority waitlist already?
That’s makes me feel a little hopeful. Good luck!🤞Yeah, he said he believes that the Lebanon waitlist is exhausted and that the alternate is now in effect Hopefully that means good news for us soon!
Orientation starts July 31st.Has anyone on the alternate list heard any news? Also, does anyone know when orientation is happening? I'm assuming orientation day is the last day to potentially receive an acceptance.
