Reviewed the website, my application, etc.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are incredible, and the students seemed laid back.

What impressed you negatively?

The interviews were not held when scheduled. My second interviewer kept me waiting for over an hour. The meal requests (vegetarian, kosher) were not honored.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Many students do an MPH during their third year.

What are your general comments?

Overall had a good time. Particularly enjoyed my second interview. The doctor even went so far as to said he was recommending me for admission... and then, over a month later (it was supposed to have only been 2 weeks), I got flat-out rejected. I was really really disappointed. Why is it that people who think they had lousy interviews are the ones who get in?

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
