What impressed you positively?

There is a strong sense of community and I liked the proximity of housing to the campus. They are very focused on hands-on experiences and require lots of patient contact in 1st and 2nd years.

What impressed you negatively?

The inside of the buildings are somewhat outdated nut nothing that would stop me from wanting to go there. Also, the airport is very very small and flights are often cancelled. The major airports are located several hours from the school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing really

What are your general comments?

I had a very nice time there. I stayed with a student which I would highly recommend. The actual interviews were very conversational like most have said- nothing tricky or stressful. The location is not for everyone but I could definitely see myself going there. I love the small town atmosphere.
