What impressed you negatively?

"1.The students seemed to have too much free time on their hands. I was kinda shocked that they were all hanging around the admissions office trying talking to applicants when some had tests later that day. 2. i looked up one of my interviewers to send a thank you note after the interview and found out some "interesting"/shady info about them and their past. Why would they have this person representing the school? 3. Too much controversy. In the future you might have to defend being a DO...and among DOs, youll have to defend going to a for-profit school. 4. No govt-funded loans" Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"That attending the interview would be a waste of time. My interviewers were really impressed with me and told me they were looking for students like me. I got waitlisted and contacted the admissions office and their excuse was that I "didnt have enough upper division science courses". (yes, I have all my pre-reqs but was not a science major) They said that I did well on the interview. UHHH--WHY DID YOU EVEN INTERVIEW ME THEN? Thanks for wasting my time. and so much for everyone being on the "same footing" once you get to the interview. To be completely honest, I probably would have attended this school if it was the only option. However, I'd only recommend it as a last resort." Report Response
