"Arrived at VCOM at 8:30, 5 other students. Met Megan, the sweetest, most bubbly person ever! She really does a great job of selling the school. An overiew of VCOM given until 9:30am and then the interviewers come and pick you up. My interviews were all great, very converstational, the last one had a list of questions he asked me..not hard..then we were given a tour of the school..great Anatomy lab(no smell), had lunch and then taken on a tour of the town and VTech campus. At 2pm we were given a presentation on from finacial aid and the registrar's office.
