What impressed you positively?

The financial aid presentation was really good. The financial aid office gave the applicants material that was applicable to applying for aid at any school. The first deposit is $250 (due at the beginning of December) and the second deposit is $750 (due 2-4 weeks later).

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The cafeteria food was below average. I was also disappointed with the lack of clinical experience during the first two years. This is probably because the nearest hospital in Downers Grove (which is very prestigious) does not want to be associated with CCOM.

What are your general comments?

I truly enjoyed my experience at CCOM. The students that were interviewed with me were extremely nice, and I could definitely see myself fitting in. CCOM is well established. I also found it humorous that the Dean made a reference to this website.
