"Amazing up-to date facilities and classrooms"
"Faculty friendliness, clinic, sim lab"

The school environment is filled with positive energy, the dental students I encountered during the interview seemed happy and enthusiastic about their school."
"Their clinic is very new. They just opened a new"
"Facilities and the admissions staff. It felt like they were trying to convince me to come to their school and not me having to convince them to accept me."
"Students"
"the staff"
"Everyone was really nice and welcoming."
"The facilities were really nice. Very nice clinics."
"The students are happy and the school give them ample opportunity to become excellent dentists"
"How relaxed everyone was around the building... students and admissions staff"
"The interview day was well structured; you end up spending about 4 hours there."
"I really liked the faculty and the students. Great atmosphere ( besides Winter in WI)."
"The facility is great. Everyone was very friendly and the students were very open about what they liked and did not like about Marquette and the dental school."
"Nice facilities"
"Facilities are awesome."
"Facilities, staff, ability to be in clinic first year,curriculum "
"Facilities are great, clinics are nice, everything is just well lit and its a great building. I liked all the staff that I came into contact with as well. Clinic exposure as a D1, which might help keep your sanity. Great clinical school but with opportunities to do research if you want."
":/"
"facilities, friendliness of staff, white coat ceremony beginning of first year - get in clinics as D1."
"The clinical practice that you get as a D1"
"The overall atmosphere of the dental school. Also that the D1 students get to deal with the patients and overall get a lot of clinical experience"
"Really liked the facilities, and students all seemed happy."
"The facility is really high tech and simulation pre-clinic lab is really top notch. The student's interaction and the welcoming atmosphere were also plusses."
"Everything. Good lunch also!"
"I really liked the brand new building, the layout of the school was awesome. All the students seemed to really like the school. I also really liked the city. Milwaukee is an older city with a lot of very cool buildings and some history to it. The whole experience was awesome. "
"Campus was very clean. Facilities were new. People friendly. Neighborhood wasn't scary."
"Friendly interviewers and tour guides. Loved Milwaukee and how close the school is to downtown. "
"Facilities are very nice, students were really excited to be there"
"I liked almost everything about it. They facilities are very nice. All the students I talked to really love Marquette."
"how efficient, clean and updated the clinic and school facility was? And the students were happy about their school"
"The area is really cool. Marquette is not quite downtown, but more of the cool parts of the outer city limits. The students seem happy and have alot of fun outside of school."
"Hospitality of the staff"
"The facilities and the students ( they were really nice)"
"Brian Trecek is the coolest guy ever. Everything is brand new! Nicest facilities I have been to by far. (UNLV,NOVA,CASE,OHIO ST,CREIGHTON,Temple,Iowa,Michigan)"
"The Facilities and the Students"
"nice faculty. great simlab and clinics. student tour guide was happy."
"The facilities and the program overall. The students there spend a lot of time in the clinic."
"everyone was very nice, plus the other people waiting around seemed comfortable so I could talk."
"School is the state of the art, just opened in 2002. Facility is fantastic, and faculty was very friendly. I really enjoyed the interview experience; very laid back, friendly, and precise. It is one of the best schools that I have been interview so far. Director of admission is very nice, explained everything, but he wants to know that you really do want to go to dental school and become a dentist. Milwaukee is good city to be at, not so expensive, campus is nice, a lot of renovations been done later. "
"It was a very nice learning environment with a good professor/student relationship "
"the facility is great and the staff and students were honest about dental school"
"the school is really really nice and milwaukee is a pretty nice city. everything in the school is brand new. new curriculum with less lectures and more small group discussion type classes and more clinical time."
"Nothing about the school! Milwaukee seems like a little bit of a drag though."
"How rushed the interview was. I was only given 15 minutes with each interviewer. The interview was on Zoom bc of COVID so maybe it would be different in person."
"Only two students present on the student panel."
"Location"
"The lack of interest, engagement, or facial expression some of the interviewers show (2/4). Those interviewers were un-relatable and seemed like they were just there to read off of a question bank. Sure, it may be to gauge how you react during an interview, but interviews are already extremely stressful. This can hinder an already nervous student to show their personality and convey their interest in the school."
"The weather in Milwaukee. It's in the midwest so I guess you have to accept that."
"1 of the interviewers was rude out of the 4"
"How the interview process was not geared toward getting to know you personally. Although it was open file, some people were reading it while you were sitting in front of them on their computer. By spending 10 minutes with 4 different people doesn't allow them to know you as a person, rather than file with your name on it."
"It seems they try to somewhat have a balance of personalities in the interview committee; one of the interviewers seems to take the "tough, stern-faced" role; I think they do it to see how you react."
"Nothing really, I just wanted to stay a little longer and look around. Since it was such an anticipated day!!"
"The way they did the interviews was too rushed. I don't know why they do it that way. I am not too excited about Milwaukee, not the worst place, but definitely not the greatest place."
"I didn't really like that way the interviews were set up. It honestly felt like speed dating and made me and many other students relatively uncomfortable. Also, 2/4 interviewers were almost verging on terrible. One apparently acted like he was falling asleep during a colleague's interview the same day (apparently he does it to gauge your reaction... but really only looks like an inconsiderate ass), and another interview was about as dull as a butter knife and had absolutely no interpersonal skills."
"We didnt get to really see the clinics very much during our tour. I also wasnt a huge fan of the "student panel." I personally would have liked the lunch with current students from D1-D4."
":("
"i wasn't a fan of the ten minute interviews with four different people. i felt rushed at times."
"whether is going to be so cold"
"Kept focusing on the one bad grade I got."
"Nothing."
"Not much at all. "
"nothing"
"Seems like most students have a car and I'd rather not have to buy a car."
"I stayed four blocks from the school and the other side of my hotel was pretty bad neighborhood"
"They don't have rotations through ortho. It's not that big of a deal, but I didn't know that before."
"nothing, may be the weather- cold"
"The interview was kind of boring. I know they aren't supposed to be fun, but they had us all in one room, kinda small, with nothing to do other than talk with each other. The students weren't really enthusiastic about the school. I feel they could have sold their school to us alot better."
"Two-day interview process. The day long bench test. "
"nothing coming to mind now. "
"It was cold, but it wasn't too bad. "
"Weather, Milwaukee, and I had the nastiest cab driver ever!"
"milwaukee can get sketchy."
"Nothing… except I wish web site would be a bit better, more organized, and included nice pictures of the school as well as better description of the school . School is amazing and should deserve a better representation on the web.... "
"the interview was kind of hard, but nothing about the school itself negatively impressed me."
"How conversational the interview would be."
"How relaxed the interview was going to go. It's really nothing to stress over."
"How relaxed they try to make the interview process"
"To be well versed with leadership qualities and what that means to you in dentistry."
"That the interview would be a little more stressful than I thought."
"The interview was going to be held in one giant auditorium where you will have to rotate between 4 different interviewers (Speed dating interview)."
"where the bathroom was"
"it would be a "speed dating" interview format."
"I can't think of anything--it happened so long ago now."
"I wish I would have known more answers to the questions asked. I did answer all of them, but it wasn't easy... like all interviews::::"
"the interview format."
"Nothing additional"
"Nothing..."
":P"
"that interviewers were going to try and cram as many questions as possible in those ten minutes"
"That our interview was going to be the final portion of a long day."
"that the school was only a couple of blocks from my motel.. the Ambassador in."
"N/A."
"Nothing really."
"Not much at all. "
"That the interview and tour would only take 1.5 hours."
"Nothing"
"how solid their program was"
"The facilities are not as amazing as everybody makes them out to be. They are new and clean, that is probably the biggest difference between them and other schools. All the LCD monitors were not being used. Its still nice and probably the best, but nothing to get all worked up about."
"N/A"
"You can load up on as much cafeteria food as you want. I would get at least 20 dollars worth for the ride home."
"No Jesuit influence in dental school since it's state funded"
"i should have told more of my friends to apply there."
"nothing really"
"Practice SDN questions!"
"Marquette seems like an excellent school, aside from the location. The interview was very laid back. They want you to feel comfortable. Be prepared for some tell me about yourself questions and some ethical questions. Just be yourself and you will do great!"
"Went into it thinking I wouldn't like it because of the location, but the school itself made me feel like I could seriously consider attending, should I be accepted."
"The set-up of the interview day was great and ran very smoothly."
"I loved marquette. i hope i get in!"
"Seems like a good learning environment overall although the school itself seems to blend into surrounding downtown areas of Milwuakee. I was not used to this so I found it odd. Also, go to the Milwuakee Ale House to eat.... great food, beer, and service!"
"Overall, I had a good impression of the place. My suggestions for interviewing: be prepared to answer a form of the most typically asked questions; and remember there may be a person purposely trying to throw you off your game to see how you react; they want to get a good impression of how you react under stress, so stay calm."
"The school is a good place for students who are hard workers and like to also have fun. So there was a great balance to the school."
"Marquette no longer has a biochemistry course (now a pre-req) in response to students' feedback. Basic science courses are taken on the main campus with other graduates and some undergrads. The school is also looking to expand the number seats it offers."
"excellent facility with an excellent curriculum, but two of the interviewers really put a bad taste in my mouth. I mean, if those are the best individuals that the admissions committee has to sell their school to students, that really says something about their faculty makeup (in my opinion)."
"Great school with great people"
"Great School and Im not just saying that because Im in-state. Ive had a ton of interviews and I can say that Marquette honestly is a great school nationwide!"
"Wow. This school is legit. It's now high on my list."
";P"
"loved it; just got accepted and can't wait to attend!"
"Great school i loved the atmosphere and loved the campus."
"I absolutely loved milwaukee. Take time to walk downtown and over to the lake. The interview seemed a little structured. My interviewer had a list of questions he just rambled off. I wasn't exactly ready for that. "
"Overall, it was really good experience. I received my acceptance letter a few days ago, so I'm excited."
"It was a comfortable experience. Overall the questions were predictable, yet there were a few suprises, so those caught me off guard. Otherwise, pretty relaxed."
"I got there about 15 minutes early. Then I was brought to a room where we held the interview. After all 8 of my group was done interviewing two 4th year dental students gave us a tour of the building and then took us to lunch. It was a great experience to actually talk to students and learn about how they think about their school. "
"Waited in office for about an hour. They took my picture. After an hour I was escorted out to another room and interviewed mono a mono. Immediately after I went a tour of the facility and had lunch."
"I enjoyed my entire visit. The interviewers were not intimidating at all and the tour guides made it sound like a great place to live and learn. It's definitely a top choice."
"It was my first interview so I was pretty nervous, the interview was somewhat relaxed so it wasn't too bad"
"There were a lot of interviewees there at the same time. It is very organized because they have appointments every half hour. The interview is first, followed by a tour, and then lunch with the students that gave you a tour. Everything was very relaxed! Don't stress too much. The interviewers said straight out that they are not trying to make it nerve racking, they just want to get to know you."
"First interview, give me an idea the level of questions and things schools are looking for in candidates"
"Solid, I thought other schools I have interviewed at were nicer and seemed to really want us. Marquette didn't seem like they cared too much."
"Very exited to say that I've got accepted after a two-day day interview. On the first day, I went through a radiology examination and a personal interview. The second day was an 8-hr bench test (Molar crown cutting, MOD, Upper class-II, Wax-up a pre prepared tooth) and Radiology. Other questions asked: 1) Tell me about yourself. 2) About my dental experience in USA. 3) How did you prepare for Part-1? 4) Will you relocate if you get accepted? 5) After completing DDS will you go for a private practice or work in a hospital? 6) Will you go back to your country or stay in USA? "
"it was a great experience, i really do hope I get in (#1). Get there ahead of time, converse with the students who are waiting with you. And next interviews making sure not to wear black, I felt I was at a funeral!"
"Excellent. I was so impressed, it is my new number one. Our tour guide was hot, and there were a ton of hotties in the program. I would go here over the previously mentioned schools for many reasons. "
"The interview was good. Laid back though my interviewers were hard to get a conversation going with. School is really pretty and new."
"Very informal conversation lead by two faculty instructors. A two way conversation about my history and about marquette dental school. The atmosphere was ncie."
"The facilities, program and people there really impressed me, it could have emerged as my top choice."
"I was super comfortable and I think it showed (i got in) I went on the tour with the students, and they offer a lunch afterwards but I declined and went home ( my feet were kiling from the heels i had on!!)"
" It is all depends on who you get, the interview was very laid back, and friendly for me. I really enjoyed being there, questions were not personal, faculty just wanted to find out more about my personality and make sure it is what I want to do as a career."
"I was surprised to find out how much free time the student who gave the tour had"
"Great dental school after the interview this is my number one choice"
"i was even more impressed by the school than i thought i would be. my student tour guide was really honest about the things she liked and disliked about the school, which was helpful. the interview was harder than other ones i had been to but the day was overall a good experience."

"Please allow for more than 30 minutes for an interview. The interview felt very rushed. I would've liked to have more time with the faculty and staff."
"Allow supplemental application & fee to be submitted online."
"to scrutinize more heavily the individuals they choose to interview applicants. 2/4 interviewers were almost rude during the interview and were literally the only thing that put a bad taste in my mouth about the otherwise awesome school."
"none. They were awesome! :)"
"Everything on my interview day was excellent. I really enjoyed the day and i liked the school a lot"
