How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

I mostly looked up standard interview questions on the internet, really no perfect way to prepare... just have to be yourself and be honest.

What impressed you positively?

The school was very impressive, in terms of opportunities and political advocacy for pharmacy. Everyone there made me feel like it was the best place to be.

What impressed you negatively?

The only bad thing I could see was the commute might be a little tough in the future. You have to take a shuttle to get the main building where classes are.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really, they make sure you're aware of everything you need to know.

What are your general comments?

Nothing special. This is definitely a great school, and I don't really see any big downsides to it. If you want a ton of different opportunities for pharmacy careers, this seems like the place to go.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

The only thing I wish they would change, is the requirement of a money order. It would just be easier for me to send a personal check, but that's really it.
