What are your general comments?

"KYCO is one of the newest optometry schools so it has up-to-date everything. The tuition is pricy, however they include a $15,000 package which covers all necessary items (scrubs, kit, board review, textbooks, iPad...). The faculty and staff were extremely welcoming and student would even mention how much they loved the school. The housing options seem limited, however the majority of landlords only rent to professional students so you will be given a housing sheet with availibility and landlord information. Definitely consider this school and attend an in-person interview to experience the environment." Report Response
