What impressed you positively?

"The school is really knew (built in 95) so the building and facilities are new and up to date. 97%-100% of their students pass the COMPLEX exams, which is tops among osteopathic schools. The students were from all areas of the country." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"The school's staff and students were friendly. A few of the students stopped by the interviewee's and talked to us for hours. It was nice this type of friendliness. The interview is relative stress free, but the questions that each prospective student was asked were very different. Questions really depended on the panel of three interviewers that were assigned. Most of the questions I was asked were directed towards learning more about me." Report Response
