✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read the information brochure, talk with students there.

What impressed you positively?

The interviewer tried his best to make me feel comfortable and making the interview just a conversation about myself and my experiences. On campus apartments are large, extremely cheap, and close to the classrooms. The are surrounding the school is beautiful and suburban, very un-New York yet close enough to Manhattan.

What impressed you negatively?

The interview day was pretty short; there was no information session; we didn't have the opportunity to sit it on any lectures or talk with many students there.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I would have to take a 20 minute shuttle to Montefiore Hospital for my interview. The admissions office explained where I would get dropped off by the shuttle and where I need to go to get picked up. However, I got dropped off at the pick up spot, and I roamed the hospital for ten minutes because I didn't know where I was.

What are your general comments?

Make sure you go 45 minutes before your scheduled interview time. If you have to take a shuttle to your interview, you don't want to be late. The school's location is great, and the interviewer was awesome. Since this was my first interview, however, I was pretty nervous. Just RELAX!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Organize an information session for the interviewees; tell the interviewees a day beforehand whether they are interviewing on or off campus.
