What impressed you positively?
They are very open to feedback and are growing a lot. Free parking. The facilities are pretty nice despite being in a warehouse-like building. You can do all your rotations in Nevada!
What impressed you negatively?
No sim-man like other schools. Tuition is bit expensive $71k/yr + 4% increase each successive year. It's the same regardless of in or out-of-state status.
What are your general comments?
It's an upcoming school. There are lots of opportunities for growth and expansion. They want serious, dedicated students since they are close to the Vegas strip so makes sense that they want to let their students know everything up front. I think it's a good school.
Basically here's the layout of interview:
Enter building, sign in and wait for Roger to get you. (Roger is really an awesome guy!). Walk to interview room w/ Roger pointing out some areas. Talk about the school. Financial aid talk. Dean comes in to talk about school's mission. He asks you who you are and where you're from. Resume talk w/ Roger as needed. Interviews start. Half the group gets interviewed and half go on tour for an hr. Then switch groups and when everyone gets back, there's a kosher lunch--sandwiches. You will know your interview order/time in the folder they give you. It's all outlined.
What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
There's a fairly quick turn around time with responses. Very thorough about the interview process.
