How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, reviewing my application, going over my resume, and studying the school's website.

What impressed you positively?

The foot clinic on campus, the clinical professors, the cafeteria food, the Harlem area, and the students around campus. Harlem was much nicer and safer than I was expecting. The students all seemed happy to be there and were excellent sources of information.

What impressed you negatively?

The amount of study space on campus seemed rather limited.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing

What are your general comments?

The day went by so fast! Everything was scheduled really tightly so I didn't get to speak with the students as much as I would have liked, but it was nice that everything was planned so well for us (I spent the day with two other applicants, although the interviews were individual).

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

No responses
