How did you prepare for the interview?

No responses

What impressed you positively?

The facilities were very nice and new, especially the cadaver lab which was very large and not smelly. It is also only 30 min. from manhattan.

What impressed you negatively?

The students seemed boring/unenthusiastic.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The students live on campus, and there is nothing around the campus for several miles (it is in a rural area).

What are your general comments?

I stayed in Manhattan, took the train to the interview-very convenient. It was raining. The school was pretty, very green, and students lived on campus in apartments that were pretty nice. However, there really is nothing walking distance from the school, You have to pay to park your car. My interview was pretty good, it was with a member of the admissions committee- non science background. I wish I had met more of the students, because the ones I met did not seem like very interesting people, and kind of turned me off to the school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
