10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

7 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read over my secondary and essays. Brushed up on health care issues, read up on the school.

What impressed you positively?

Great interviewer, not out to trick you, but instead put you at ease and let you be yourself. Fantastic tour guides who were knowledgable and excited about the school.

What impressed you negatively?

No hospital, housing on campus so no real sense of community. Buildings were not the nicest, but adequate. No gym. High tuition costs.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Not enough food for lunch. Bring breakfast for before, and perhaps a snack as well. You will be sitting in a room with the other candidates are they interview one by one, for about 2 hours.

What are your general comments?

A good experience overall. I'm by no means in love with the school, but I would not have any problem attending it.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

None. They did a great job presenting important information. Perhaps a bit of a more substantial lun
