What impressed you positively?

The school is so nice and clean, great facilities (even though all in one building).

What impressed you negatively?

Somewhat of a strict environment (dress code, mandatory attendance, no food or drink in the classrooms).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Erie really isn't that bad - it's a nice little town (as long as you love the snow)!

What are your general comments?

Meet in a room with the other students, take a tour, wait in a conference room where you introduce yourselves to each other, read an article for like 15 minutes, there's presentations about Erie, financial aid, etc. while students are taken out of the room one at a time to have their interviews, have lunch in the cafeteria with some current students, and that's it. P.S - I'm happy to say I was accepted and will be attending LECOM this year! You can do it - don't give up!!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
