SDN interview feedback

What impressed you positively?

The idea that all health profession students are in the same classes and you have one particular group of students of varying fields that you stay with all four years.

What impressed you negatively?

Toured the campus earlier in the spring. The campus has tons of pear trees, which smell absolutely terrible when they're flowering!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How much downtime there is. That's not to say you're sitting around bored, but there was a lot of time available to talk with other applicants and review handouts regarding apartments, student orgs, etc.

What are your general comments?

The day is very laid-back; the most stressful part is the faculty interview, but even then it wasn't that bad.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
