How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Used this website, reread my application essays, read up on healthcare news.

What impressed you positively?

How friendly and happy everyone seemed, and how nice the facilities were.

What impressed you negatively?

Instead of helping you find your interviewers' offices, they basically gave you a campus map and a room number, and wished you luck.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known that the interviews would be so easy.

What are your general comments?

Both interviwers I had were very nice and laid-back. The first one tended to ramble a bit, so I probably learned as much about him as he did about me! The second interviewer asked perceptive questions and laughed a lot. She did point out that MUO isn't really a school that turns out researchers-- they turn out clinicians. All the students seemed very open and friendly and satisfied with their school. They emphasized repeatedly the student-centered, non-competitive atmosphere of the school. The facilities were a LOT more impressive than I thought they would be. We were also presented with the impressive statistic that MUO students have a 98% pass rate of step 1 of the boards.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
