How did you prepare for the interview?

No responses

What impressed you positively?

Love new orleans. The new patient simulator is pretty cool. The students are laid back and friendly. The MD/MPH program is excellent, very streamlined and you get to specialize in different areas of public health. Not many schools allow you to do that.

What impressed you negatively?

Very expensive. New Orleans isn't too big on recycling.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

All the interviews are closed file, unless you have Dr. Beckman. She's the only one that has access to your entire application. I had her, but it went really well and she's very nice.

What are your general comments?

Its a great school. Take advantage of the overnight student host program. They interview on mondays and fridays so that people can take advantage of the weekend to check out the city. Highly recommended

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

The online secondary needs work. not user friendly
