What are your general comments?
Prior to interview day, UofA had been my first choice, however after the tour and the interview I changed my mind. I was put off by the "hurry up and wait" mentality of the school. Students were overall friendly, but staff seems distiant. I was accepted, but turned it down. Think carefully before you take their acceptance.
💬 Interview Process
What impressed you positively?
24/7 lib is awesome. School had a nice family feel. They have a ranked wait list.
What impressed you negatively?
Overall, the interview day was a let down. I was interviewed by a pathologist and a radiologist, so we had very little common ground (as I wish to become an ob). One of the physicians told me right off the back that he hates pt's, so the interview went down hill from there.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
FinAid is sort of a mess. We were told that if we didn't submit our fafsa prior to the feb deadline we would not beable to get aid. Our acceptance would not even be sent out until march.
