I'm recently accepted into a medical school and they said they need an escrow account for 4 years of tuition. Does this mean I'll need to put 4 years of tuition into this account? If so, how is this different from just saying I need to pay them 4 years of tuition up front (i.e. why do they call this an "escrow" account?) Thanks for the help!
Unless you are a international student!
I am double majoring in biology and psychology and I am hoping to go to a first tier law school but my GPA is a little low. Will law schools take this into account? It can't be fair to compare my GPA to someone who has one major or a major that is known to be easier! right?
Of course it is fair to compare you to someone with one major, since no one asked you to take two. And who gets to decide which majors are tough? At most schools, psychology is considered one of the easier majors! Having said that, yes, they do look at rigor (although not necessarily giving more credit for more than one major, which isn't really any harder than one major and a lot of electives), but that is just one of many factors considered. By the way, when I applied to law school, I had a doctorate and a masters already. Several people in my class had at least as much. It would have been no more fair to give you credit for a second major than it would have been to look at my graduate degrees. Everyone was judged on the same criteria.
Well, my school has one universal account for ALL students to use. However, with individual accounts, it is easier to monitor individual student internet access. So, why do some schools not have individual web accounts, but rather one universal, virtually untrackable computer account?
my school has individual student accounts too, but the school i transferred from does not. instead they make it mandatory to sign into the computer you are using, sadly, on a piece of paper next to the computer, and recommend you write in ink.
but, to give them some credit, they do have a room where all the activities on the school server is monitored, and if anything suspitious or inappropriate is spotted then the person in that room can immediately find which computer in which room and notify the principal, who swoops in and catches them in the act.
