How did you prepare for the interview?

Just winged it...best way to do it if you ask me.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities looked very new and well maintained. The faculty was extremely nice and made the whole process very comfortable. Also, you can choose where you do your rotations (can go out of state if you like).

What impressed you negatively?

The city of Erie seemed very poor and run down. Though I did not explore the whole city so my poor perception of the area may be due to the location of my hotel.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing

What are your general comments?

All of the faculty and students that I met were extremely nice. The day started with a brief tour of the school, then we were given a good rundown of the curriculum and cost of attendance/financial aid. Afterwards, we were interviewed individually and those who were waiting had a chance to talk with current students who were nice and helpful. Finally, we all ate lunch with a couple of students and then were on our way. I am glad I attended this interview...although I was not too impressed with the city, I feel that I could tough it out for 3 years.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
