What impressed you positively?
The clinic is incredible. Busiest i've seen. The gait lab is really big and cool and I would highly recommend for those interested in biomechanics to check it out. The financial aid lady is really enthusiastic and helpful. The students seemed to really think that they are getting a great education there. The area of Philly where the school is situated in SAFE. Good transportation without the need of a car, people in the area were super friendly. It's a gorgeous city.

Some of the admissions people were a little unprofessional. The school could use some renos. You eat lunch right before the interview so my stomach didn't feel settled. I wish the tour was given by a student.
