How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN interview feedback, reviewed application, anticipated questions

What impressed you positively?

Facilities, student enthusiasm, relaxing atmosphere meeting with Dean Page, the fact that many students came over and ate lunch with us even though they weren't student ambassadors, rigorous curriculum for residency/board exam preparation, interdisciplinary environment, proximity to Phoenix, cost of living

What impressed you negatively?

Only about 50% of the school is wireless and the anatomy labs do not have screens above each cadaver table. However, this is a minor negative.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How relaxing the interview would be.

What are your general comments?

The day was planned out well and everything ran smoothly. The DO and DPM applicants were in a large room together as interviews are being conducted. A general campus tour was taken by DPM applicants with DPM students (I'm pretty sure the DO applicants got their own specific tour too).

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
