"Get there around 9. Meet admissions guy and dean of student affairs. Take a tour of facilities. Lunch. Student interview. Basically, this person wasn't cool at all. They acted like my reasons for GW were wrong and that my interest in becoming a practicing clinician was unremarkable. Then had a faculty interiew.
