✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read my essays, checked out information from the schools website, read up on some current medical issues.

What impressed you positively?

The school seemed very progressive, they have just recently updated their curriculum in a positive way, they will be moving into all new facilities in about two years, and Denver seems like a very pleasant place to live.

What impressed you negatively?

Limited student services, besides the things that happen in school students are left, for the most part, on their own. This works really well for some and not as well for others.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I learned that although out-of-state students pay and exorbitant amount of money for their first year (about $80,000), they are all eligible for state residency by their second year and pay in state tuition for the second, third and fourth years.

What are your general comments?

It was a solid day, interviews happened first thing, thus making the rest of the day much more relaxed.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
