Matt Winterton (Penn Med '15) and I are conducting a small study trying to get a sense of the cost of away rotations for ortho applicants. Would you consider filling out this brief survey?

Most were about $1,000 for me. Plan more if you're going to New York, Chicago, San Francisco

Not always the nicest apartments, but for a month spent mostly at the hospital I was just looking for something walkable/bike-able that had a bed
