What are your general comments?
Overall it seems like a terrific school. The faculty had all worked at various other medical schools so the fact that UIWSOM is so new did not deter me as much. The dean even has experience starting another successful medical school. Other than the area not being incredibly nice it seems that UIWSOM has a bright future.

What impressed you positively?
The faculty was very experienced and friendly. The facilities and equipment were all new. The current students were helpful.
What impressed you negatively?
Though the school is renovated, the facade is very dated and underwhelming. Since the school is newer it appears to be a risky choice compared to more established schools.
