What impressed you positively?

The staff is very friendly and helpful. Roger Corbman, the admissions director, is one of the funniest counselors I've met. He has a lot of energy and is genuinely passionate about what he does, and is honest about the strengths and weaknesses of the school. The facilities are very new and the school is expanding and looking to take a larger role in the health care of the Las Vegas community. The students seem in support of this and raved about their faculty and rotations.

What impressed you negatively?

If you're looking for a traditional style campus, with large foyers, patches of grass, fountains, and ''ivy growing on the walls'', you'll be disappointed that this facility is in a very large building. That being said, they've done a very good job at planning and making space for everything the school needs. Taking into account the weather (it's quite hot, 120 degF in the summer), you begin to understand why an entirely indoor campus is beneficial.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interview started at 9 AM, by the time lunch came around at 1 PM I was starving. Get a good breakfast in you so you have plenty of energy and patience to sit through the presentations, tour, and interview sessions.

What are your general comments?

Met in the lobby at 9AM, met briefly with Roger (director of admissions), next off to a financial aid presentation and discussion with the dean, Dr. Forman. At 11 AM, one group gets the tour while another gets interviewed. At 12 the groups flip-flop. 1 PM lunch and Q&A session with Roger again, then free to go.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
