How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

I didn't do a lot, honestly. Read the school's website, reviewed my application and research.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful. I had thought of UMC as kind of a safety school that i would attend if I had to, but now I realize that I would be so happy there. The office staff is so friendly and helpful, as are all the interviewers.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing. The facilities are great, they are in the process of expainding, and the hospitals all seem really nice and well run. A very positive experience.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

UMC is a great place. Don't count it out as just a safety school because it is a good school. It does very well in residency matches because of the clinical experiences students gain; this is very important. I cannot say enough good about this school.

What are your general comments?

As I stated above, wonderful. Full of friendly and helpful people, and the school is better than I originally realized.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
