How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN. I've heard the questions change, so there really isn't any way to prepare.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are top notch. It is also located just outside Chicago so you get the fun of being by a big city while not actually having to live in it.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The tuition prices. Also, the fact that they haven't graduated a class yet makes me worried to choose them. Another concern is the amount of patients they see. Northwestern and Loyola closed their dental schools and UIC recently downsized all due to not getting enough patients. Is this new school really going to see a large amount of patients in a rich suburb like Downers Grove?

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Traveling to the school isn't very easy without a cab. If you take the Metra, plan to take a cab from the Downers Grove Metra station to the school. It is 3 miles apart.
