How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed their website and looked up publications of work done there.

What impressed you positively?

The attitude of the student interviewer and some of the other students that I met. They seemed to really like the community that was there and by the end I did too. Also, the staff was extremely accommodating. I also liked the rotation of classes during the 2nd year in groups of about 8. I also prefer the pass/fail system, it decreases competition with peers.

What impressed you negatively?

I don't like the combined classes with the DO students in the first year. Those are going to be huge classes.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I failed to look at the price of out of state when I applied. It is outrageous. I was looking at how close family was to the school, not at the price.

What are your general comments?

The staff was extremely accomodating. Directions made it easy to find. Interviews went smooth. Students convinced me to come. I'll be coming in the fall.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
