How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Talked to other students. SDN site. OSU dental site.

What impressed you positively?

How organized the whole thing was. You did not need to know anywhere you had to be except the hotel. There were students with you at all times guiding you and answering questions. They served you two meals (breakfast and lunch). Very hospitable. There is a lot of pride at OSU, not only for the school of dentistry, but campus in general.

What impressed you negatively?

Length of time. It starts from 7:30am to 3:30pm. Although the day was enjoyable and stress-free, being on the go all day was tiring.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That you don't need to bring anything. I brought a leather folder and ended up carrying two (they give you one) all day.

What are your general comments?

Overall... it was awesome. I really like the school and it's number one on my list right now.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
