Read SDN; looke at USUHS website; talked with student host night before the interview

What impressed you positively?

The cohesiveness of the school on all levels from the students to faculty.

What impressed you negatively?

Small school. Older buildings. But these things did not detract from the experience for me.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really surprised me. I did a lot of research before interviewing here.

What are your general comments?

Overall, the day was very interesting. The morning briefings were informative and gave a good general sense of the school. I enjoyed the open door policy and actually got to talk with quite a few individuals. Interviews were very laid back - they are trying to ascertain your motivation for attending and to see if you are a good fit for Military Medicine as well as gauge you as a student.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
