✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read through AMCAS and secondary application. Nothing special.

What impressed you positively?

I'm already familiar with the school and it's reputation. The students really do love it here, and the faculty all seem very approachable and supportive. I'm also very impressed with the admissions office. Only two people, Robyn and Denise, and they do a better job than most other programs with larger staffs.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing major. Some of the facilities could be updated, but this doesn't change the education the students are getting.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was interviewing with two ob/gyns. My background and research is in an entirely different field.

What are your general comments?

Great day, though a little long. Everyone, from students to admissions staff to faculty, were very encouraging throughout the day. I would have preferred the interviews to be done before lunch and THEN do the tours, etc. Overall, great impression of the program.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
