What impressed you positively?

During thier selling of the school, which was from 8am to 1pm, they provided a ton of useful information. Usually, I'm more skepitcal of a school that sells itself, but they must have done a good job.

What impressed you negatively?

The joint labs with podiatry students. No DO interviewed me!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That DMU is a lot cooler than I thought. (They give you a bag of goodies!!)

What are your general comments?

Very chill. The student was extremly nice to me. I was also interviewed by a PhD. Both were cool, described the programs I inquired about, and seemed interested in my comments.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
