SDN, Meharry website

What impressed you positively?

How supportive the school is of the students, and how well the faculty and students get along.

What impressed you negatively?

The cost of attending the school was more than I thought. However, they did tell us about several financial aid programs available.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interview was not as intense as I had anticipated. If I had known this I could have slept a little more sound the previous night.

What are your general comments?

The interview at Meharry was very informative. Unlike the other interviews I have been to, Meharry sincerely wanted to show you what they were about. Their day did not start until 10; so, I didn't feel rushed to get there. Then, the day was busy with presenters, touring the facility, and a free lunch. The interview group was about 8 or 9 students, and we were pulled out 2 or 3 at a time for our interviews. Several interviewers were present; so, it was easier for them to remember who you were. The students seemed genuinely happy there, the faculty knew students by their first name, and the facility was very up-to-date (including the labs). After interviewing at Meharry, I am really considering attending this school.
