How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, AADSAS, friends.

What impressed you positively?

1) The technology. Everything in Midwestern is new, and that can be a big plus since Dentistry is a constantly evolving profession when it comes to that. 2) The friendliness of the dean and everyone else! Fantastic.

What impressed you negatively?

The location of the school. Given that its only 15-20 minutes away from Phoenix (the fifth largest city in America), it's really located in a bare and desolate area. It's not a desert, but it does not seem to be full of culture or a very high traffic place. Although people will be studying intensely for the first couple of years at least, its reassuring to know that a school is in a culturally live location.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing in particular.

What are your general comments?

Midwestern expects to interview 500 people and out of that 500, there are only 114 seats, so the statistics of getting in aren't the best. If you get an interview there, try to be yourself and have a good time!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

None. Very friendly and welcoming!
