What impressed you positively?

The admissions director took a lot of time to explain the entire admissions process to us...in fact, she went into far too much detail. I almost fell asleep.

No responses

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The students enter the clinic during the first year in FCM, and continue into second year. Lots of student run clinics for M-I,II students. Housing is CHEAP! Compared to California at least. Huge medical center...about 700 inpatient beds. They are redoing the libray..will be done by the time we enter in 2003.

What are your general comments?

Great school. Students seemed happy to be there. Out of state expect to pay $31,000/year. Lots of restaurants in the area. Easy access to Washington, D.C., North Carolina, Maryland.
