They send you all the questions they could ask you. After the interviewer got done with the “required” questions, it quickly became a casual conversation about me and Las Vegas.
-
Care about their students A LOT
-
For a new school, I was very impressed by their go-get-it attitude and willingness to tackle new problems. Faculty/staff seem very personally motivated to help students succeed, smaller class size was appealing
What impressed you negatively?
-
Small facility
-
Current medical building is drab and very unexciting. This will change eventually when the new building is constructed
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
-
Relax more before the interviews. I still got nervous, but the interviewers were very nice and having the questions in advance really made things less stressful in the end. Seems like UNLV was trying their hardest to reduce anxiety for their interview day, which I appreciate
