How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, Website, WARM CLOTHES :)

What impressed you positively?

All the students were great, curriculum seems good, admin responds to student needs, etc.

What impressed you negatively?

Hospitals are spread out around the area, not much to do in suburban (or downtown, for that matter) Buffalo, IT WAS FREEZING.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

The pre-interview spiel was very formal and up-tight. The interviews themselves were more mellow. One student and one faculty (although they said it would be 2 faculty). All the facillities are in 1 building. Stay at the Travelodge across the street, it's cheap and easy.
