"The environment is very welcoming, students work together to help each other. The free clinic is also right across campus and is a very rewarding place to volunteer at." | Report Response

"Community atmosphere (literally no gunners); ample research opportunity; situated in a quiet area but close enough to two great cities (Chicago and Milwaukee); no school hospital system means a wide variety of rotations all around Chicagoland (you get to see a wide spectrum of patients); fantastic professors" | Report Response

"Exams every 3 weeks for the first two years means you get a weekend off." | Report Response

"Nice places to walk outside in the spring" | Report Response

"curriculum" | Report Response

"Much of the faculty, if not very helpful,is at least very nice. We have a lot of opportunities to experience different practice environments." | Report Response

"Clinical rotations are not at a single hospital." | Report Response

"The rotations are far away from campus, which means we have to move before our 3rd year." | Report Response

"Faculty and staff" | Report Response

"location" | Report Response

"2-br and 1-br. Apartment style large building. For the area housing is very costly." | Report Response

"On-campus housing is very nice, clean, but because North Chicago is so isolated, it is hard to find things to do. Grocery stores, while not far away, are not particularly nearby. Same with pizza delivery. It's also expensive, but all of your utilities save electric are included in rent." | Report Response

"excellent" | Report Response

"Most are fun to listen to. Some are abysmal. Almost all professors, however, are a joy outside of class." | Report Response
