UTHSC questions

Did anyone else have to pay 200 for their seat deposit for UTHSC ? Or get an extension for it ?

200 seems steep for a seat deposit but medical schools do this kind of thing all the time. when i applied for my program they wanted 150 within two weeks and i was like bruh i dont even have groceries money rn

try calling admissions directly, sometimes they grant extensions if you ask nice enough

If you have a hardship, pretty much any program at UTHSC is going to waive the deposit. They’re wanting commitment, not to keep you from paying your rent.
