10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed secondary, SDN, and UCF COM website.

What impressed you positively?

EVERYTHING... How welcoming the faculty is, the technological opportunities that will be available, the beautiful (interior) design of the future COM building.

What impressed you negatively?

That the actual COM building won't be completed until the inaugural class' 2nd year.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Everyone was sooo friendly to us and excited for the COM to begin. I was very, very impressed throughout the whole day. The interviewers aren't part of the admissions committee; they are actual clinicians in the community. I heard from the students that all of their interviewers, especially my two, were very laid back and just wonderful. Definitely did not feel like an interview, more of like a conversation.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
