website, interview feedback, spoke to students, read a book on Osteopathy as well as did some research on HMOs.

What impressed you positively?

The campus, it was recently renovated and looks great, although it is small.

What impressed you negatively?

The length of time we spent waiting around. Our time should have been spent speaking to students, or admissions officers while we waited. Also the financial aid lady so obviously did not care to be with us for the short few seconds she stopped by.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing

What are your general comments?

The campus is great, the people are great and your fellow pre-med students are great too. I had a nice time interacting with everyone. Everyone seemed real happy to be there. I didnt get as much interaction with the med students as I had wanted to. But Overall, the experience was great.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
