What impressed you positively?

"The friendliness of the students. Random students came up and talked with me about how much they loved the school and enjoyed going there. They seem nice and sincere." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The facilities (very old, cramped, not up to par). The location (downtown area, like most medical schools, so don't expect it to be pretty, but Tulane's location is still more hideous than most.) Tulane also claims to be pretty diverse, but I remember specifically noticing that I didn't see many students walking around." Report Response

"Nothing in particular. I expected to see and speak with more students and sit in on a class, but there wasn't actually a lot of free time (about half an hour)." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Tulane's selling point is its people- they really were as friendly and outgoing as I expected, and they really do seem to love the school. This weighed heavily with me, and is probably one of the most important qualities I'm looking for. But, while my overall impression of the school was positive, I wasn't really taken with any of its other features." Report Response
