What impressed you positively?

EVERYTHING!! I loved this school. The students were sooo nice, they have a campus ministries office that plans retreats and service events, my interviewers walked me from the medical school to the hospital and back for interviews. one of my interviewers is the nicu director and he took me in and showed me around the department. the admissions staff is excellent and the dean of admissions personally sat down with me and the other interviewer and explained admissions procedures. i sat in on a class and really liked it, their lecture halls are the best that i've seen..and i know that i'll be spending a lot of time in a lecture hall. also, they paired me up with a tour guide from my undergrad--how nice and thoughtful of them!

What impressed you negatively?

nothing...everthing was awesome, from the people to the opportunities to the attached gym!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing

What are your general comments?

the best day of interviewing that i've had!! i would love to go to school here. the first thing that i did were my two interviews. one was 1hr 15 min long and the other was 45 min long. I had great discussions with both interviewers. the dean talked with us about the admissions procedures, and we were given a voucher for lunch in the cafeteria (good food), and a tour of the facilities. i also was able to stay and attend class with my tour guide.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
