Read SDN, interview feedbacks, school web, and watched the presidential debate the night before. :)

What impressed you positively?

Best education at a lower cost. Their curriculum stressing both didactics and clinics. Nice faculty members. Nice building. Small class size. Nice food at their cafeteria (not expensive at all.)

What impressed you negatively?

No responses

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There is no good public transportation system. You need a car to get around. Bring your car to interview, or if you don't have a car, rent one!

What are your general comments?

Dr. Thibadaeu's overview of the curriculum/school was very thorough and informative. He was a good educator, too. He wanted us to make an informed decision, and he was willing to help us in choosing the right program for us, even when we decide not to go to U Conn. He stressed that the program is "EXTREMELY DEMANDING." Interview was not stressful. As Dr. Thibadeau says, they try to find reasons to accept us, not to reject us. Interviewers were EXTREMELY NICE. They asked a lot of questions, but not too hard ones.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
