Information for Prospective Students

Before you depart for Buffalo, you should make sure that you have taken care of these stuff.

1) Ensuring availability of lodging

* It is mandatory for freshman to stay in the residence halls for if you arrive in UB as a freshman. The residence halls package comes along with a meal plan. You will have to pay $200 for deposit.

* Make sure you know which residence hall you wish to stay in. Take note of where most of your classes are going to be held. Medical students will have most of their classes at South campus. Undergraduate studies or majors such as Business and Engineering will have most of their classes held at North Campus.

* Transfer students are not required to stay in the dorm.

2) Sign up for orientation program

3) Remember to fill in Health Background form

* You can go to any doctor to fill that form.
* You have to submit photocopied proof of your immunization shots.
* Rubella and MMR shots is required..

3) Don't forget your 1-20!

4) Provide yourself winter clothing.

Buffalo is really cold, better get yourself prepared. Also note that it's also pretty cheap to get them here.

5) Bring a bedding set if you are planning stay in the residence halls.

Students are expected to bring their own bed covers, pillows and blankets. Note that you will certainly experience a jet-lag from your long journey to the United States. If you are going straight to the dorm to rest, it's goof to have everything all prepared :)
