Old RMstudents website
Wed, 10/24/2007 - 10:39pm — adminSomeone emailed us concerned that all the info, pictures, and hard work put into the old RMstudents website was going to be lost. Please understand that this will not happen. Here is my response:
Trust me, we would never be getting rid of all the information and hard work put into the old site. We're just giving the new website a makeover.

Congress places financial burden on medical residents
Tue, 10/09/2007 - 5:13pm — jblackhallAccording to a new law passed by Congress, most medical residents no longer qualify for loan deferment during residency. In the past, 67% of residents qualified for deferment of loans during their first 3 years of residency, a period which no payments are due and the government pays the interest on all subsidized loans. According to the new rules set by Congress, very few residents will qualify for deferment.
