How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN interview feedback, read my application.

What impressed you positively?

The campus expansion. Their were a lot of new buildings and programs being built and implemented. The open door policy with the faculty. Clinical exposure in your first two years. The opportunities to do research. The weekly exams and outstanding board scores.

What impressed you negatively?

The heat, extremely high tuition, and too many people to each cadaver.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The traffic on the way back to the airport would not be that bad!

What are your general comments?

The experience was awsome! Really liked the campus, they were doing a ton of expansion (research facilities, new lecture halls, recreation center). I really liked that you can get clinical exposure in your first two years. They have the highest board pass rates out of any DO school, and I think that the weekly tests ensure that their students keep up on studying. The interview day goes from about 8:00 AM to 2:00PM, and they provide lunch and breakfast. Be prepared to have a lot of waiting time. Their are three panels of 3 people in each (D.O., 4th year med, and a faculty) that interview you. The atmosphere is very relaxed. The tuition is very expensive, probably the most out of any D.O. school.
