Reread AMCAS, SDN, School Website

What impressed you positively?

Students would stop by and visit with us just to chat about the program - from all years, not just the 1st or 2nd years.

What impressed you negatively?

When the assistant admissions director told us that last year they accepted someone 3 days before school started, so the wait could be that long, but don't give up hope.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That its 6 people per suite in their guarenteed 4 year housing, and that the train runs above ground right outside their windows. Although the suites are very nice and really affordable for the space you get, being in NYC, and being so close to campus - literally across the street.

What are your general comments?

It was the least stressful interview I've been on the faculty and the students made a real effort to get to know you and put you at ease.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
