What impressed you positively?

how close the school was to my house!

What impressed you negatively?

It seemed disorganized when I went for the interview. When we got in there was a multitude of pharmacy students, and I found that to be very disruptive. Then the admissions staff just gave us our folder and told us that we can explore the school if we like as long as we're back by 9:45.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Bring a pen for this interview because you have to jot down some notes about important dates.

What are your general comments?

It seemed disorganized, but it was raining outside and the pharm students were in the hallway and were very noisy (understandably). Then we were told that we can go explore the school. After that orientation started. And then we watched a movie in a 13inch TV. Then the dean talked to us about the school. For some reason I thought he was too defensive of osteopathy, instead of being proud of it. Then a few more people talked to us. Then the students gave us a little tour of the campus. Then we went to our interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
