Keep an open mind about LECOM, I had a wonderful experience at the interview and touring the campus

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

The admissions representative seemed to lack a lot of knowledge regarding the school and just read off of the powerpoint. It gave a negative impression since the representative seemed to know very little about the program and information she was presenting. It was the one negative of the interview day.
