What impressed you positively?

"The generosity of all the students and faculty. All the students overly expressed how helpful the faculty are and how willing to help and concerned they all are. The same appears to be true of the students also." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The tour was given by a staff member who works in Student Affairs but practically read off of a sheet the entire tour. It would have been more fulfilling for the tour to be given by students or at least someone who knew what they were showing and seemed interested. Also the cafeteria had hot dogs and chips for their main entree. The only alternatives were salads( which most had meat with them). This might not sound so bad but for the vegetarians who may be reading this, you feel my pain. I was able to get a small regular salad, but the cafeteria lady seemed extremely disgruntled." Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"I didn't really discover anything knew. Everything I read from other entries was completely accurate. " Report Response

What are your general comments?

"There is only one building, so if you're used to a "campus" there isn't one here. The building is all white and it seemed as if no one went to school there. There is a dress code, but it allows you to accumulate all the dress attire you will need as a physician and makes you feel like you're accomplishing something.I was also able to stay with students that attend the med school, so it gave me a very different perspective than if I had just stayed in a hotel and left immediately after. So, if possible, arrange to stay with a student." Report Response
