What are your general comments?

"Incredible. Every person that I contacted during the day was happy to be there and proud of their school. The interviews are almost completely conversational and pertained to you as an individual. I feel that the interviewers only wanted to get to know me. There was no stress! If you are serious about being an osteopathic doctor, this is the place to be. I did not come into contact with any negative people. Great experience-Great school! Also, I had a "glitch" with my luggage and the administration was extremely understanding and helpful in resolving the matter. They really make you feel "at home."" Report Response
