studentdoctor.net, Wash U website, my application

What impressed you positively?

Everything! They bend over backwards for you. They put you up for free in their dorm, throw a pizza party for you the night before, serve a fancy lunch buffet, and make sure it's as low stress as possible.

What impressed you negatively?

The tour was an hour and a half long, very unnecessary

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Wear comfortable shoes!

What are your general comments?

The day starts with a talk on financial aid and the admissions process. Then I had my interview with one of the deans, followed by a very LONG tour given by a fourth year, and then lunch with third and fourth years. The day was organized really well and very low stress.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
