"Read SDN, UW ethics site, my application." Report Response
"Both interviewers were familiar with my file. The first one seemed to have studied it inside out. Albany is CHEAP! One student had a 3 bedroom apartment for $750 -- and it was only that "expensive" because he was 30 seconds from campus. The school itself seemed pretty laid back and friendly. I liked the fact that the hospital is right there -- and it's huge." Report Response
"The facilities are a bit old, and they aren't very high tech. But nothing that would make it impossible to learn." Report Response
"Albany and the school are not as bad as people make them out to be. I mentioned to one interviewer that I have some friends in med school who hate any class not directly related to science. His immediate response was "then they don't belong here". So if you hated humanities in undergrad, think twice." Report Response
"The whole experience was much better than I had expected. Albany is, well, Albany, but neither the school nor the city were particularly terrible. The city is very cheap to live in, which would balance out the costs for people who are looking at cheaper schools in more expensive areas. The infamous ethics questions were there, but they were interspersed with questions about yourself. Often, I didn't even recognize the ethics questions until I had begun to answer them. Overall, less stressful than I had been expecting." Report Response
