What impressed you positively?

"The students (all years) loved the school and had nothing negative to say about it. The admin staff was very warm and welcoming. Everyone went out of their way to make us feel at home and get us excited about being there. Additionally you will find out that first year clinical experience is really extensive. You are assigned a family and sent somewhere in the state to complete a preceptorship within your first semester!! Additionally they have STAN and the Harrell center which really help to develop great history taking, and patient skills." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The food was okay, but some people in our group did not like mayo and it was all over the good. I would suggest bringing a snack with you just in case." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"It was an extremely positive experience. The interviewers were friendly and just trying to get to know us- not out to get us. Although 1 hour seems like a really long time to have an interview, the time flies by. In fact one of my interviews went over by 15 minutes and we did not even realize it!! Amazing school with clinical experiences from day 1 and top of the line technology." Report Response
