SDN, school website, book or two

What impressed you positively?

Just about everything...campus, students, facilities are amazing.

What impressed you negatively?

It was a saturday, so not many students around...that, and the housing situation (off-campus, summer prices, etc.)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No school hospital...which is a good thing if you do not want to be in Maine for third and fourth years.

What are your general comments?

It was very laid back. The interviewers were a DO who was very talkative(which is a good thing) and a MSII. No crazy ethical scenarios or criticisms of my record, just a casual conversation and a chance for me to get to know the school. I believe the interview was partially open-file. They did not ask anything about grades or experiences, but knew I was in graduate school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
