What impressed you positively?

Didn't know what to expect coming in as it's a somewhat newer school but they really do a good job of making you fall in love with the school. They are very honest and straight-forward with describing how much it costs to attend, why it's listed as a "for-profit", how it was founded, etc. Even as someone who wasn't an official student, they were already offering lots of resources on what to do to avoid as much debt as possible, what scholarships to apply to, what each faculty member can help you with and so on. There were lots of faculty in the virtual info. session (which is always very nice to see), and the faculty/medical students that were there were very professional, down-to-earth, and honest about every aspect of the school. I was talking to a current student in my session that was openly explaining something she didn't like about Burrell and it was very refreshing to hear compared to my other interviews, which always had students that looked depressed or annoyed to be there, or very awkward/constrictive about the information they shared. The other schools' interview/info. sessions I attended were filled with a "you're lucky to be here" vibe but Burrell does a good job of doing the opposite and making it seem like they're lucky to have you there. Overall, very organized and the time flew by. They seem like they genuinely do care about you as a future student and how you do at their school and I hope that this attitude carries on throughout the 4-years that you're there.

What impressed you negatively?

Don't really have anything negative to say. If I were to be nit-picky I would say that the school does not hide the fact that it's expensive to get a medical degree (Tuition + living expenses). When they started dropping the numbers and going into detail, it kind of caught me off guard bc the other info. sessions I attended for other schools do a pretty quick gloss over the numbers to get into other parts of their presentation, sometimes even ignoring living costs and other aspects regarding cost. In the moment, it's a lot to handle all at once but I appreciated the honesty/bluntness of it afterwards.
