How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, went over my app, and albany's website

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was very friendly, and I liked how much involvement the students could have with the hospital.

What impressed you negatively?

Not much about their curriculum schedule, and very tough to find anything that looks remotely like an academic calendar. Also tuition is pretty steep.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it costs about the same to rent a car (try enterprise) as it does to take a cab from hotels near the airport.

What are your general comments?

Overall it was great, and I found out I was accepted a week later, very impressive how quick they were. Also about 2 weeks after my interview, one of my interviewers actually sent me a hand written letter!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
