What are your general comments?

Very pleasant experience, they interview so few people on any given day so you get very personalized attention. The curriculm is holistc, and based on the Jesuit ideal of Cura Personalis-- the whole person. The students seem overwhelming estatic and happy with their school, and there seems to be a strong sense of community. Classes are 8-12 or so each, so there is a ton a room for flexability and freedom in your schedule. Fitness facility is out of this world, and the campus ministry is so heavily involved with EVERYTHING (or so it seems) the students do, so it would appear to me that if a student had a problem of any sort he/she would have a resilent and strong, non-judgmental support network. The clinical experiences appear to be good (they start early, as with many schools now) but the hospital is not in downtown chicago, and I am not sure if it is a public hospital or not. Overall, a very positive impression, and I really liked the school.
