What impressed you positively?
The student body is soooo happy to be there. Two students pulled up seats by us at lunch and just hung out. The staff is so supportive and the school is in a dynamo location with all of the hospitals on the same campus!
What impressed you negatively?
May get a little cold in the winter!
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The interviews are so laid back and it is truly a school that just wants to get to know you. If you interview, they know you can do it academically, but they want to meet you beyond paper...so just relax and be yourself! I interviewed with a student and it was great, because I was able to ask him a bunch of questions about his choice to attend MCW as he also asked me questions (super laid back).
