The facilities, but new school is coming!!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There was honestly nothing to be worried about, the day was a great experience.

What are your general comments?

The day starts by meeting your fellow interviewees and Dean Snow. He talks about the program for about an hour. Then there is a financial aid talk for an hour. Next you have either an interview or tour... then you have the other. Next is a boxed lunch with current students who were very helpful. Then everyone has 1 more interview. Last there is an optional tour of the hospital... I found it helpful.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
