How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

5 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Because the interview is closed file and I knew it was ethically based questions, I didn't prepare. I just winged it.

What impressed you positively?

The academics as a whole is something I like. They're on 8 week rotations for classes/clinics throughout years 1-3. They are also renovating various areas of the college.

What impressed you negatively?

The first year tour givers did their best, but there were simply too many interviewees compared to first years. It also didn't seem as organized on the tour front.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing. It was pretty straight forward and followed the schedule pretty well.

What are your general comments?

Enjoyed the experience. I will chose this school if accepted.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
