What are your general comments?

The atmosphere was amazing. From the interview and tour I felt like this would be the best place for me to attend school. Also, this school has some of the best professors in the field of pharmacy which is a plus.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Provide the best professors for the interview process as all of the interviewers were MIA the day of the interview. I would suggest they do not schedule interviews on the same day as other pharmacy seminars or events are being held because the professors seemed preoccupied.
