What impressed you positively?

The national rankings the school has received. Also, the fact that you jump right into pharmacy classes your first year and have more time to do rotations your third and fourth years.

What impressed you negatively?

Some of the facilities. They are kind of spread out over different buildings, but they are breaking ground on a new building in December of 2007.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Entering class size is 200 but a portion of those move to the Knoxville campus after the first year.

What are your general comments?

The day was an overall positive experience. The people were friendly and laid back. The interview was not stressful at all.. the interviewers are simply trying to get to know you. The school was very impressive.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
