How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, talked to students

What impressed you positively?

The positive and supportive nature of the faculty and the students. Their facilities are also very CLEAN and nice. They have a great simulation lab.

What impressed you negatively?

The cost of living and tuition, although professional school is going to be expensive anywhere.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The school attire from the very first day is business casual. So you can't wear jeans and sweatshirts anymore. But, schools should be as professional because it's realistic to being in the clinic.

What are your general comments?

I loved UOP. It's a great school, and they pride theirselves in being close to their students. The atmosphere is great with shops across the street to relax a take a break while in school. The area is nice and compliments with the school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
