How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Thought about how I might answer typical questions.

What impressed you positively?

They are building a new building for the medical school and nursing school. The hospitals and research facilities are nice and the students seemed to enjoy going to school there. I also thought both of my intervewers were very good. Also, there is a lot of political gossip spread about the admissions committee at the University. I didn't see any of it, and I think the admissions committee tries their best to bring in the strongest class.

What impressed you negatively?

The tour wasn't very useful.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing.

What are your general comments?

The interviews went very well. They were low stress, get to know you type interviews. The interviewers knew who I was and they had been over my file. Whenever I mentioned something from the file, they knew what I was talking about, which was nice. I enjoyed my visit.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
