How did you prepare for the interview?

Got the list of questions they ask for the interview.

What impressed you positively?

Huge campus, great scenery, not as &quot;small town&quot; as I initially thought, awesome Rec center.

Cold, lots of hills.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Speed limits travelling to Morgantown are slow until you hit WV.

What are your general comments?

For the most part, the experience was great. Although, I had a hard time finding the pharmacy school until someone told me that it was where the emergency center is. Once I found it, the building is old but this is where other health professions have their classes. I talked to Dean Ridgway who was extremely nice and gave me the low down on the interview process and how the acceptance process is done. I also talked to a first and third year student and they were telling me about the school. I also toured their labs and their &quot;mock&quot; pharmacy which was extremely cool. All in all, I was very impressed with what they had to offer.
