What impressed you positively?

Friendly students

What impressed you negatively?

Poor facilities, NO CAFETERIA- a student's wife sells some food but no official cafeteria, student lounge- piss poor!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The school does not own their buildings on-campus. They lease it from a private company. Very limited housing.

What are your general comments?

Supposidly the school is renovating an old building and converting them into dorms but - NO MEAL PLAN. From what I found out from some students, there was rather an ugly housing issue with on-campus housing where students had to vacate on a short-notice. The dorm rooms were supposed to be ready last month but no move-in date as of yet. I saw the new classrooms but nothing impressive. I talked to a few 3rd years who said that they were very unhappy with the way the rotations are handled, given that the school does not have its own medical center. I have a few other interviews but my decision is already made. You won't see me at TUCOM.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
