No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read up on the school, looked over commonly asked questions, read over my file.

What impressed you positively?

I came away with a far better impression of UMC than I had walked in with. Everyone is super-friendly, the clinical experiences during 3rd and 4th years are far more hands-on than you will find at most schools.

What impressed you negatively?

The lack of diversity.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

They are building a new addition to their hospital complex. Once this building is complete, all of the UMC hospitals (except the VA) will be 10 years old or younger.

What are your general comments?

This was a great experience--Dr. Case is a great ambassador for the school, I had wonderful interviewers who were very personable and did everything they could to find out more about me, rather than grilling me. The staff is so so nice...it seems like a great place to be!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
