No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

sdn, talked to my roommate (who had interviewed at UTSA earlier)

What impressed you positively?

the studnets were so nice, the opportunity to go to harligen, the dean of admissions was great!

What impressed you negatively?

not much...i wish we had gotten to see some of the other hospitals that we would be able to spend time in (although, i guess that wouldn't have been possible)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing

What are your general comments?

I had a great day. UTSA is one of my top two choices now (and it's making it hard to me to rank schools!). The students were great and I loved the "campus feel". Interviewers only have your personal statement and maybe your school name.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
