How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

UMDNJ website, read over application, SDN, stayed up to date on current news, etc., read a few books over the summer.

What impressed you positively?

The school facilities are excellent, the atmosphere is sizzling with friendliness and I felt very comfortable when I was on premises. Admissions staff is extremely friendly and helpful, and the class size is pretty small. Students were very supportive and seemed to love the school. Hospital affiliations.

What impressed you negatively?

Traffic in the are can get heavy, but that is the case almost everywhere in NJ. Other than that, nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That interview was going to be rather pleasant than stressful, unless of course you stress about it all week and then it definitely will be... well, stressful!

What are your general comments?

If you can, schedule your interview as close to the 3rd Friday of every month as you can, because that is when committee meets, and the days after the interview were some of the longest days I've had. The wait was killing me!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
