What are your general comments?

"This was very low stress interview. Everyone I met from staff to students to faculty was extremely nice and welcoming and made me excited about wanting to attend even more than I already did. It is one of the most beautiful hospitals I have ever been in and the school uses some of the most innovative technology in educating its students. It was my first interview with a student but she was very friendly and encouraging and the professor who interviewed me was extremely nice as well. The admissions office staff member who conducted the tour and spent most of the day with us was very knowledgable about the school and Washington, DC itself. He was willing to answer any questions we had and knew the answers to all. Students had lunch with us and they were helpful in further answering our questions. Overall, the day was not the least bit stressful and very informative." Report Response
