What impressed you positively?

So many hospitals so close together with a lot of opportunities.

What impressed you negatively?

out of state tuition and the fact that they are looking at 11-20% tuition increases and that may not be just for one year...:( Also, the whole day seemed like very on your own for going to your interview and the various sessions. There were a lot of people interviewing at once though.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

tuition is getting even more expensive.

What are your general comments?

It was pretty much a laid back conversation starting with. "Tell me about yourself" Not really a lot of questions directly but a lot of good conversation about stuff that I had done in the past and how I felt about my experiences.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
