9 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over my statement, and the program details on the website - knowing the program really well help me ask specific questions.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are amazing and everyone is really kind and excited to be there.

What impressed you negatively?

The location is a bit rough - really nothing around but the school. But the school is beautiful.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How laid back it would be. Also, there was a lot of focus on the clinical practice side of the program - the coursework was really only discussed when someone asked.

What are your general comments?

A great school, great program.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

They should offer to offset some of the interview costs. Many students flew in and some rented cars on top of that. They do offer grad student hosts, though, which is nice.
