No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, AMCAS app, Health Politics (Mike McGee), basic research on HMOs, read over my research.

What impressed you positively?

the students seemed to love the small class size and seemed to be close to one another.

What impressed you negatively?

when i defended my answers, one of my interviewers acted like i was getting too excited. maybe this place is for people more laid back than i am.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

1. its hot in here, even in january. 2. greenville is in the middle of nowhere, yes...but there are a lot of things i didn't expect there (ie, an old navy)

What are your general comments?

the interview and tour were both positive experiences, overall. however, i was very disappointed by the fact that i did not receive a single communcation from them (that i did not initiate) in the three months between my interview and my acceptance. for a school that prides itself on personal attention, i found communication skills to be lacking. note: keep calling, or you will have no clue what is going on.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
