How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, knew my file well, knew my strengths and weaknesses well also

What impressed you positively?

The interview was very relaxed, I felt that my interviewers just really wanted to get to know me. I was excited to find that LECOM will be opening a campus in Florida next fall!

What impressed you negatively?

Erie is not a very exciting place, but this will work as an advantage as one will focus on her work..

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Be mindful of your actions at all times because i think the admissions folks do have their eyes on you and are watching your interactions within the group.

What are your general comments?

This interview was very kick-back/low stress. The other interviewees were very sociable, and the faculty and students at the school were very helpful and open when answering our questions. Don't worry!! Erie is really not that bad of a place, depending upon where you are from and what you are used to. It is centrally located to a number of metropolitan areas (Columbus, Pittsburgh)and it is near Canada and beautiful upstate NY.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
