No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

go over general interview questions, discuss health issues with fellow classmates, personal reflection

What impressed you positively?

1. the people. The small town feel of the school was evident in its faculty and students. Everyone was especially friendly and would go out of their way to say hi. 2. the patient-centered care attitude

What impressed you negatively?

If you can handle Grand Forks for a couple years, its a wonderful place for those looking into small town practice. But it can be cold, no doubt.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How influential it can be to be affiliated with an undergraduate university. UND's hockey and football give a medical student something to do and follow.

What are your general comments?

Overall, I really liked it. The people are especially nice, the school is small, but good. and if you are going into small town medicine, this could be a great fit for you. If you would rather the lights and glitter of the big city, well, this may not be the place. Also, the facilities are new and impressive, including a family medicine clinic neighboring the school (not to mention the palace of ice hockey nearby)

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
