No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, School website, potential questions.

What impressed you positively?

How the schools administration and faculty seem to really pull for their students- regarding financial aid, housing, keeping grades up and stress level down.- Also, COMLEX scores seem to be consistently high.

What impressed you negatively?

Dress code (but the students didn't seem to mind)- I like the freedom to be able to bum around in sweatpants and flip flops when I feel like it- Also, the anatomy lab had no windows, and the bodies are prosected.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Low stress, friendly atmosphere. There were some presentations early on, and then we interviewed (there were three different panels going on at the same time). Afterwards, more presentations and a lunch with students. Then we were free! Everyone was very kind and excited about their school- it's a very new, clean, and organized building. You hear back about their decision roughly four weeks after you interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
