How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, reviewed my application and school's website, mentally accounted for probable &quot;explain a time when&quot; questions.

What impressed you positively?

Ms. Webb is super personable and both Dr. Bannerman and the regional dentist who interviewed were friendly and encouraging. Willingness of admissions staff and current students to act as sources for prospective students. The small class size is a plus for me, as is the fact that Dalhousie is a board testing site with reciprocity with the States.

What impressed you negatively?

Nova Scotia is beautiful, but going to school internationally presents additional complexities.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That interview was closed file. I think Dalhousie gives both open and closed interviews.
