Single Students
Singel life in professional school follows the same pattern as single life in college, with a few exceptions. First, professional school requires much more study time, which seriously curtails the amount of time available for dating and partying. Do not dispair--there is still thiem for these exciting past times, especially if you practice time management. Set your priorities, and you will have no problem fitting your "hobbies" into your busy schedule. Another major difference between college and professiaonl school appears to be the size of the dating pool. Class sizes are smaller than those found on many college campuses, and you have class with the same people almost every day. This may make some think twice about dating someone in their class. There are always upperclassmen and students from different schools in the Health Science Center with whom you can mingle. With a little effort and some involvement in extracurricular activities, you can meet many different types of people with whom you can associate.
Just remember that professional school will be what you personally make of it. Being single does not mean being lonely. Spend time with your fellow classmates, get involved, play intramural sports, hang out at the local bars and clubs (if that's what you enjoy), and maintain a balance between school and your social life, and you will be happy. |
