No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, went over my application, talked to students at the school.

What impressed you positively?

The dorms, hospital, and school are interconnected so you can go to classes without braving NY weather.

What impressed you negatively?

My interviewer, the smell of formaldehyde permeating the hallways near the first year dorms, the idea of living in dorms again (though, contrary to previous reports I would not compare it to living in the gutter).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Most of the students come to NYU straight out of college.

What are your general comments?

I got a strange vibe from my interviewer from the very beginning. He seemed to be trying to test me by asking off the wall questions. He also made a completely inappropriate joke about some of the students I had worked with which I did not appreciate AT ALL.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
