What are your general comments?

If you like a smaller town, this place is nice. I did not like how most of the student body must relocate after their first 2 years at DMU. The interview was so laid back its almost a joke. It seems more like a formality they must get out of the way. If you interview here you have a very good chance of getting accepted.
