How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

This site. Fellow pre-dental students and dental students.

What impressed you positively?

Relaxing atmosphere. Dr. Coleman appears to be helpful to his students to the fullest.

What impressed you negatively?

Their facility (aside from that 3-D stuff) appears ghetto as hell. Patient area was not the most comforting place in the world. U of Tennessee is not an ivy league school. I felt they portrayed their school as if it was one of them. Believe whatever you want to..

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

They only have 80 seats available b/c of the 'lack' of practice area.

What are your general comments?

It wasn't that bad but nothing impressive. Facility was old and needed some renovation. Not a place for non-southerners, especially for minorities. Good value of the education for the cost. This should be the only reason you should consider this school - it's damn cheap.. but it's a ghetto school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
