How did you prepare for the interview?

Student interview feed back provided here. Readthe student guides the UHS sent to me.

What impressed you positively?

Really nothing. It is my safety school. I received an acceptance letter 2 weeks after the interview. The student who lead the tour was upbeat nice. The school is just mediocre. Not good not bad.

What impressed you negatively?

It's a small school. When I talked with the students off the record they complained about the instructors. They said most students don't attent classes because its just a waste of their time. Students seem really postive on campus. Off campus they bash the place. There is no campus life. Next to the book store there is a student center with a pool table and a TV which was empty ever time I went by it. After 3 pm the place is dead. The library is a whole in the wall that is empty most of the time. It was depressing. The area where the school is located is deep in the inner city. My girl friend and I went back the next day to get anotherlook at the place. It was desolate. Kansas City is cold and wet. The area is depressing. Going here would be a hard 4.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How apathetic the students aretoward the school. The low ratings the students gave the instructors.

What are your general comments?

MEDIOCRE. But its a medical school!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
