What are your general comments?

"We didn't have to be there until 10:30, so that was nice. A short presentation by the dean of admissions gave tons of great info about the school. Then came a tour, which wasn't worth it and no help, and then interviews. It was one interview with 2 people - one faculty member and a med student. There was no financial aid presentation b/c the department was out of town. That was kind of disappointing since I had heard such great things about financial aid at UNMC. Done by 1:30 p.m. Overall it was a pretty good experience and I look forward to hearing back from them." Report Response
