SDN, Web, Other students

What impressed you positively?

They prepare their students to take the boards after the first year. Good facilities. All the students semed to really enjoy the school and were happy with the education they were recieving.

What impressed you negatively?

Saw a roach in the lab, clean huh.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Dr. Healy is a very nice and proper man, but very hard to read. Half of the time during my interview I was sure if it was going good bad or if I should just shut up and stop making a fool of myself. But over all when it was over I felt it had gone well.

What are your general comments?

I really enjoyed it and its always nice when the school gives you lunch, added bonus. Just so you know if they don't tell the students who give you the tour are also evaluating you.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
