What impressed you positively?

Students are not as ''cuthroat'' as the rumor mill says, the student center was nice, the hospitals available for clinical years have quite a diverse patient population

What impressed you negatively?

We had too much time in between presentations and interviews; the day could have been shorter without the senior class video;

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing.

What are your general comments?

Arrived at 9am; sat in for school overview presentation that lasted until 9:30am; I had interviews at 10 and 10:30am in the Library which went very well; Our tour was after interviews and then we had lunch; lunch was plain and simple...nothing fancy..but then again I would not let their interview food factor into my ranking of the school; after lunch we had two more presentations about the curriculum and student life; the senior class video followed and the day ended with a tour of the Student Center.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
