asusundevil1 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Congrats to everyone who has been accepted and plans to attend UAB!! I thought I'd start a new thread for anyone who wants to introduce themselves, ask questions, or post any info you have about the program that might be helpful to others. I'm so excited and can't wait to see you all next summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kclaire012 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hi! So excited! My name is Kendall and I am coming from Denver Colorado! How about you?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asusundevil1 Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hey, Kendall! My name is Tiffany and I will be coming from San Antonio, TX. Now I wish that I would have scouted out places to live around Birmingham while I was out there interviewing. Instead, I just went to the mall! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kclaire012 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Nice to "meet" you :) When did you interview? I was just thinking the same thing! I have no idea where to look for housing. I don't think I will want to live in the city, I have heard some people talk about homestead and Hoover... Any other thoughts?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asusundevil1 Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 I interviewed in the morning on November 16th. The outdoor mall that I found was called The Summit and appeared to be in a more upscale neighborhood (southeast of the city). Mountain Brook is another area that I'm going to look at in addition to the ones you mentioned. Please post anything you find out and hopefully others will do the same! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aeduke Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Congrats to all. I'm looking forward to this journey. I interviewed November 16th in the afternoon. I'm Abbey Duke from Tuscaloosa, AL! I'm very familiar with Birmingham so if you have any questions I may be able to answer them. Lots of my friends are from Birmingham and my church is there too, so I make the one hour drive at least once a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asusundevil1 Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 Hey, Liz and congrats!! Sounds like our Group C brought it on the 16th! :). Now I'm trying to put the faces I remember with names. I'm the one who took notes during our group exercise (if that jogs anyone's memory).

lnrovinelli Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Yeah, I was also trying to put faces with names. I was thinking of making a facebook group for everyone to be a part of so we could put a face with our new classmates. If everyone wants to private message me with their first and last names I dont mind starting one at all. Let me know what yall think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hart012387 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Hey guys just wondering based on your Facebook group how many people have been accepted? I interviewed back in November and should be finding out soon but I just wanted to know how many spots are left. The wait is killing me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asusundevil1 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 I have no idea how many have been accepted so far, but there are 12 of us in the Facebook group. I would imagine that lots of people have been accepted but many are still undecided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeduke Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Lacey, I just added you as a friend on Facebook so I can be added into the group! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CompApplicant Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Hey everyone! So I know many of our deposits to hold a seat in the class were due at the beginning of January and I was wondering if anyone who sent theirs in then heard anything back from the school? I guess I am just being paranoid hoping that I did everything right to hold a seat! I just havent got any feedback after I sent the check and signed form.

kclaire012 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I never heard anything either, I made a call to the school and just confirmed that they received everything they need! I am sure you are fine! If you are still worried just shoot an email or call and they will let you know :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
