What are your general comments?

Overall, liked this school much more than I thought I would. It seems as if they are headed in a positive direction (just need that final accreditation!)
💬 Interview Process

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over and prepare for the interview questions they provide prior to interview day-- they only ask questions specifically off that list

What impressed you positively?

For a new school, I was very impressed by their go-get-it attitude and willingness to tackle new problems. Faculty/staff seem very personally motivated to help students succeed, smaller class size was appealing

What impressed you negatively?

Current medical building is drab and very unexciting. This will change eventually when the new building is constructed

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Relax more before the interviews. I still got nervous, but the interviewers were very nice and having the questions in advance really made things less stressful in the end. Seems like UNLV was trying their hardest to reduce anxiety for their interview day, which I appreciate
