lersc

I had a 3.69 overall, 3.9-something in my major, 152 Q, 165 verbal.

I was sold because it was one of the top programs, I will receive in-state tuition, and of all the programs I applied to, it seemed the most welcoming toward/equipped to properly prepare non-background students. Plus, it will only add one semester to my program, rather than two. All of this was really just confirmed by my visit to campus. My advisor was nice, informative, and excited that I would even consider a thesis. The facilities are new and top-rate. They also said that if, once you began your program, you decided you were more interested in research, it would be relatively easy to get you on the PhD track. Of course there's no way to really know until classes begin, but so far I'm very happy with my decision. I made a FB page, by the way, and hope people join as soon as they decide! https://www.facebook.com/groups/812015308898467/

I also accepted my offer! I'm not sure if there's a FB group. I was looking for one but couldn't find anything. If you make one, post the link!

Yep! You can sign up here: https://offcampushousing.memphis.edu/

Nope! No email yet, but I did email the advisor they assigned me to ask about schedules and tuition info. No response yet. I also signed up for the roommate search.

Hi all! Just thought I'd make a thread for those considering or planning to attend the University of Memphis. Anyone else out there?

Any good apartment buildings/locations that people would recommend?

Seconding University of Memphis!
