What are your general comments?

"The day went really well. You get there at 8:00 and they give you a short overview of the school and you introduce yourself to the other interviewees. (there are 8 total) Then from 9-12, you interview 2 at a time. There are two sets of interviewers and you will interview with one set. My set was a woman D.O. and a man who was a Ph.D. They were very nice and laid back. After the interviews, you eat lunch with the student ambassadors. Ours was catered and we got to eat in the president's board room which was nice. He also came in and talked to us for a while. After lunch, there's a school tour and then a session over curriculum and financial aid. The day wrapped up at about 2:30. Overall, I was very impressed with the school and the people. They are just like family there and you can tell!" Report Response
