What are your general comments?

"I was really nervous, but as soon as I walked into the admissions office, they were really nice and calm, and gave me information of the people who were going to interview me. They then did a quick synopsis of the school and programs, and then we went to our first interviews. Then I met with an admissions officer and then my second interview. Both interviews were open-file and most of the questions were about my file and why I chose osteopathic medicine. It was very conversational and comfortable. They let you know pretty quickly if you were accepted too which is really awesome! I really recommend this school if you dont mind living in a rural area. " Report Response
