"When you first arrive they take you to a lounge where you meet with the other prospective students and present you with your schedule for interviews. After a brief information session, they give you time to explore the University, go to classes and basically do whatever you want until the time of your interviews. Before lunch the Admissions Director gives a very informative discussion about the admissions process, the choices of campuses for the clinical clerkships and financial aid.
