How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, LECOM website, reviewed my application materials.

What impressed you positively?

The enthusiasm of the faculty, staff and students. Great facilities.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing, really. It was during a break, so unfortunately there were only a few students available to speak with us. However, they were very personable and willing to answer our questions.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I'd visited the school twice before, so I had no surprises.

What are your general comments?

Very laid back and conversational. The staff (starting with the security guard all the way to the interviewers) did a great job of making it a friendly, encouraging atmosphere. Ask lots of questions. Undeniably, the most important thing is to get a sense of whether or not you belong there, so come relaxed (easier said than done) and ready to let them get to know you.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
