What impressed you positively?

Cheap tuition. Students were very friendly and happy, gave interviewees high-fives as we walked to our interviews and wished us good luck! They also took time out of their day to walk interviewees to their second interviews if they were in another location. Dean was straightforward about probation and what they are doing to fix it. New clinical skills facilities

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

My second interview was with a faculty member who was foreign, didn't speak English very well, and spent maybe 10 minutes interviewing me. Didn't seem very interested in talking to me and wasn't making much eye contact, but perhaps this was a cultural difference.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

As an OOS applicant, there was a very long time (>4 months) spent waiting between interview and decision. We weren't told at the interview when to expect the decision, and I wish I had asked this.
