What are your general comments?

Overall I was highly impressed with this school. The facilities are nice, especially with the new building. The interview day is long but worth it. I left there feeling great about the day and about myself. The town is small, but everyone seemed to adapt just fine. I can't stress enough how wonderful everyone was. The admissions committee meets once a week, so they get back to you quickly. They're also very proud of their history. I'm very excited about the school and can't wait to hear back from them!
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Literally every question was about my experiences (school and clinical) or about me as a person.

What was the most interesting question?

Tell me about yourself, start from the beginning. (Wait, you went too fast. . .I want to hear details about your family, what your life was like in high school, etc)

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over my application.

What was the most difficult question?

What was the biggest problem you encountered and how did you deal with it? (Seemed easy enough but my answer felt inadequate when I didn't have a big long explanation)

What impressed you positively?

The interviewers knew EVERYTHING about me, every detail of my life practically! They really made an effort to know me and were incredibly friendly. I felt so comfortable there.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing part from a tiny little town which I expected.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How absolutely incredible the people there would be. Everyone seemed so happy! I was nervous for two hour-long interviews but there was no need because both interviewers were awesome and easy to talk to. I could really show my personality in the interview rather than being grilled with questions and answering stoicly.
