What impressed you positively?

HIGH Step I pass rate (~99%), and a killer anatomy lab (no pun intended). Housing was superb, and the students are quite laid back. Financial aid counselors work closely with students to help them budget properly.

What impressed you negatively?

$$$$$$$$$$$! The cost of attendance is over $53K/year. Valhalla doesn't have much of a public transit system besides trains and cabs, so it's very difficult to get around without a car.

The high cost of attendance.

What are your general comments?

I stayed with a student host, and was immediately impressed with the housing facilities and the laid-back demeanor of the students. The interview events started at 8 the next morning, with presentations from students and a financial aid counselor. There were 12 interviewees. I interviewed with a pediatrician for ~40 min, and then joined the group on a campus tour (really, a tour of their medical sciences building). The anatomy lab was state-of-the-art, and did not smell like one at all. At the end, we were all treated to lunch.
