What impressed you positively?

Faculty/Staff are very nice!!! Took us out to a very nice lunch!

What impressed you negatively?

It seemed that the school only cared about money and not education. The facilities were practically few renovated stables called classrooms/medical school. During the tour I actually saw one of the faculty wearing cowboy boots/hat and a belt buckle while teaching the class. Call me old-fashioned but I just don’t think that’s appropriate for a medical school. The big “selling point” for the school was how “relaxed” their students were… I don’t need to pay $40,000 to be relaxed. The students who gave us the tour talked nonstop about how they party all the time, I don’t know if that’s typical but it sure didn’t impress me.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

This an old military school converted to medical school!
