How did you prepare for the interview?

I had taken an interview class to ease some fears in undergrad; once I had gotten the letter inviting me to the interview I looked at some facts about the school itself.

What impressed you positively?

Wow. The head of admissions is amazing. Dr. Coleman is his name, and he really helped us feel at home. They had a whole information packet there for us, and really put us at ease about the whole process.

What impressed you negatively?

Absolutely nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How amazing the facilities at this campus really are.

What are your general comments?

Anyone who has the opportunity to go to an interview at this school should do so; other dental schools should take a lesson from UT.
