No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read the Case School of Dental Medicine website, reviewed curriculum change information sheet that came with interview letter, SDN, etc.

What impressed you positively?

The students seemed very enthusiastic about the school, and everyone has their own chair. Also, the faculty and students are very close. The clinical facilities are top-notch and students begin working in them during their freshman year.

What impressed you negatively?

It's cold in Cleveland, but there are lots of really cool areas nearby (i.e.: Coventry and Little Italy)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interview is relaxed, more of a conversation. One is with a faculty member and one with an admissions committee member. The faculty one is very conversational, the other one a bit more intense. They are both about an hour, but it goes by quickly. Also, you get free lunch, not a bad deal.

What are your general comments?

VERY impressed

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
