How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

7 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Researched info on GW website, watched videos from the school online, etc.

What impressed you positively?

Beautiful campus, hospital, and great area of DC! Loved the simulator facilities! Most schools I have interviewed at did not show us the sim labs so I thought this was great!

What impressed you negatively?

The presentations before the interview didn't tell us much, I was disappointed that they didn't try to sell themselves more. We also did not tour the hospital which I think would have been very useful!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Not to book a late flight the night before the interview (...ended up being delayed several hours and I didn't go to sleep in DC until 3am)

What are your general comments?

No responses

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

To tell interviewees more about the school at the morning presentations then just what I could find reading the website.
