What are your general comments?

I had a great time visiting OSU Dental School. It was held at the Blackwell Inn, which is a fancy hotel located right next to the &quot;Shoe&quot;. Breakfast gave us an opportunity to mingle with some of the students and staff that were on hand and was a great start to the day. After that we broke up into our groups that were designated, and we began with the interviews. It was nice that we interviewed rather early in the day so we could enjoy the rest of the day. Lunch was really good and the tour at the end of the day gave us a good feel of the whole campus and what OSU really has to offer outside of the dental school. I was happy to be accepted.
