How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

I read the USA website, interview feedback, and thought about answers for different questions.

What impressed you positively?

Of course, the Women's and Children's Hospital is very impressive. I was also impresed by how excited the students were by their choice in school and the amount of hands-on clinical experience you get in third and fourth years.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities at the university need some updating. Not much else was very negative.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

If you tell them that you will have a car, then you will have interviews at the hospital. This will cause you to have to cut short interviews which could have been longer if you didn't need the driving time.

What are your general comments?

It was a very good experience. USA knows exactly how to sell their school to prosepctive students and most of the interviewers are very nice. This interview has definitely made USA one of my top choices.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
