School website

What impressed you positively?

Director of Admissions was extremely enthusiastic and seemed to really care about us. Facilities were excellent, the clinics were bustling.

What impressed you negatively?

Many members of the faculty would pass by and ignore all of us. Not a lot of sunlight in the buildings, kinda gloomy.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Cost of school will not be covered by federal loans. Private loans (if no other source) must be obtained.

What are your general comments?

The interview was one on one - it was hard to get a read on the guy. I think I answered all the questions pretty well. Overall it seemed like a great school. The facilities are brand new and the students seemed to love it. We were ignored by many of the students and the faculty, but it was very busy. The presentation of the school by admissions and financial aid was wonderful. I think NYU is a top notch program and obviously NYC is wonderful. Very expensive but living in NYC for 4 years is an experience that no other dental school can compete with.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
