What impressed you positively?

facilities are NICE! students there are great and love the school. Dr. Mejia is awesome and very caring, even with class sizes of 230 she still knows students by name! They spend money on the dental program to have the best resources. The food there is AMAZING =D.

What impressed you negatively?

No financial aid session. Interview was so SHORT - I have no idea if that's a good or bad thing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the interview was going to be so short. That my interviewer liked physics when I was asked which was my most challenging class haha

What are your general comments?

Great school in an amazing city. The students and Dr. Mejia really emphasized how untrue the rumors are. They have a very high board passing rate - i think 93% or only one or two people failed. The large class size wasn't a problem for students - they like the diversity of the class. Faculty to student ratio is 1:6, which is still pretty good. Simulation lab and clinics were cool. Overall a really good school!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

confirm the room scheduling for dean meeting! lol, we spent about 20 minutes searching
