varekai1018 Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 Is anyone starting grad school at UofA? I was accepted to the DrPH program in Health Policy and Management, so looks like I'll be venturing out to the Sonoran Desert!

I'm quite ready for an MPH in Epi! I think I'm actually going to drive the 2,000+ miles there. I'm still concerned where I'm going to live though. I know if I don't go through the school for housing, I'm going to save a nice sum of cash.

I think I'm going to drive, too (also from Philly!), and I guess make a fun road trip out of it. No idea where to live, though. I went out to visit/interview in November, but don't feel like I got a good enough feel for Tucson to pick a neighborhood where I'd like to "settle down". Maybe grad housing for the first year (it's just so much more expensive than other housing in Tucson).

Maybe grad housing for the first year (it's just so much more expensive than other housing in Tucson). I was thinking the same thing. My dad actually talked me into just picking a place and living there, without ever visiting. I got in contact with the school who put me in touch with a current graduate student. He said they don't really have slum lords. Being from Philly, I was shocked! I think I'm going to just blindly pick anywhere within 2 miles of the school, pack up my car and drive out!
