How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

They sent lots of materials to go over. Their website.

The friendliness of the staff and students, and the kinda new hospital. The personal attention was pretty good . This is one of those rarer schools where calling the admissions office won't result in getting a crabby person on the other line. The higher-ups in admissions are also accessable.

It's really far out there. The cold.

Should have learned more about their training.
