✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Zoom interview. So I spent time setting up my room with things that showed who I was, and made sure the Camera captured it all. Had mock interviews and morality discussions with family and friends. Watched lots of youtube advice videos and read blog columns. Dug deep into their website to find specific questions to ask. Exercised every day.

What impressed you positively?

The group style discussion. It was fun meeting other applicants. Students seemed down to earth. The deans felt reachable and relatable. Admissions seemed available. Loved the faculty interviewer!!! She really made a huge difference for me. I am really excited to get to know her more.

What impressed you negatively?

Students also seemed a bit "academically cocky". But I guess that is to be expected, afterall they are all in MEDICAL SCHOOL!! Faculty didn't seem that diverse.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It's not as stressful as you think. Relax, you prepped hard for this. The interviewers are just people too.

What are your general comments?

I liked the experience overall. I think that it is a school worth considering, especially if you love the outdoors, rural Pacific Northwest, and like a holistic and group learning approach to school. I am looking forward to attending there!!!!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Keep up the good work. I had a small hiccup with my application, which was addressed quickly and smoothly. Everyone was super friendly. I am looking forward to continuing the admissions process next week!!!
