What impressed you positively?
The warm, collegial environment impressed me the most. The facutly, staff, and students were so genuinely kind, supportive, and passionate about UT. Student satisfaction is very high, and there are many services devoted to helping students succeed. Also, UT students interact with one of the most diverse patient populations, have early clinical exposure, and can do rotations all throughout TN.
What impressed you negatively?
The buildings appear a little outdated and funding has been a problem in the past.
