It was overall a very positive experience. I really liked that they had a lot of students available for us to talk to.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

It would be nice if they had paired up the interviewers/interviewees based on what we had written in our personal statements. They had someone interviewing who focuses on veterinary pharmacy (what I wrote my entire essay on + what I want to do) but they didn't have him interview me.
