What impressed you positively?

I came away feeling the school has a very solid and established program, there is extensive clinical experience, and abundant opportunity and exposure to many different fields of medicine. Also, the anatomy, micro, and OMT labs are state-of-the art!

What impressed you negatively?

The lecture hall seemed outdated, and the dorm style apartments offered across from the campus seemed sub standard, dark, and dingy.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What are your general comments?

Very informative. I felt like the admissions faculty really cared about us students and that I could see myself easily attending KCUMB. Also, while you wait to get called, they let you chill in the game room. So, we were watching CRIBS, playing pool, ping-pong with other interviewees and current students. The overall experience was way laid back!
