What impressed you positively?

Solid program and all the healthcare facilities are together.

What impressed you negatively?

There was no tour or introduction. The 15 minutes that we had in the beginning was basically, "Here's your schedule today, now go to your prospective rooms." Questions that we had for students were done in their student panels, but the students looked not interested and bored (and brought their laptops in). I felt like the school should have done more to make students feel more welcomed. The expensive out-of-state tuition and high living costs were not appealing either.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There would be no tour...

What are your general comments?

I took the light rail from the airport to my hotel. It was very convenient and cheap. Great transportation for the day.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
