What impressed you positively?

The number of hospitals nearby, all of the new developments occuring, and the school's teaching style.

What impressed you negatively?

All of the construction. Parts of the buildings were gutted and just about anywhere you went it seemed you had to go through a construction zone.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That despite arriving really early, I should have arrived even earlier to navigate the construction.

What are your general comments?

Upon arrival I was directed to my first interview which was decidedly more laid back and low stress than other interviews I have had. It seemed like the university was having some scheduling problems during the interview day. It was also strange having lunch at 11:00 while being given the financial aid presentation. The strange lunch time aside it was overall a pretty positive experience. I enjoyed what I saw and what I learned about the university and I wouldn't mind attending there.
