The structure of the day was planned and followed very well. They had an OMM demonstration. The schools itself is incredible. Everyone that I ran into seemed very happy to be there; from faculty to students.

What impressed you negatively?

The size of the town, which isn't a huge dealbreaker to me. The tuition is also a bit scary to me. ($59,000)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How truly laid back the interview was. If you are there for an interview, then they are interested in you on paper and all you have to do is show you match up to what is on paper.

What are your general comments?

Great school, the match data and board pass rates speak for themselves. This will be a very hard school to turn down.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

None. Ran very well.
