What impressed you positively?

The admissions staff and faculty were all very friendly. The students were divided into 4 houses (like Hogwarts!) and often have friendly competitions, which looked like a lot of fun. They even have 2 faculty, one MD and one PhD as their "house masters".

What impressed you negatively?

There's no student housing very close to campus. Most students live on the west side, which is a 15-20 minute drive; not a big deal.
