Default Re: Fact finding mission. LA vs ATL

All in all, UCLA people pretty easy to get along with?

I think one her biggest hangups is the fact that getting in off a waitlist means no 2nd look weekend. Basically, that's where people who got accepted spend a weekend together touring the campus, getting acquainted with the city, and generally starting to meet all of the people they are going to spend the next four years with.

So it's a choice between suddenly moving to LA where we'd know nobody or staying in Atlanta where she's already met all of her future classmates.

That's the thing. When the plan was obviously Emory, we were almost positive we didn't want to stay in Atlanta in four years for a residency, but were probably going to move back after spending however long it took her to finish that and any kind of fellowship.

So we were planning ahead to do something like this down the line, but with a little more....structure behind the whole process I guess.
