Summary of Experience:
Never got around to completing the secondary.
Summary of Experience:
I finished this secondary really really late in the game, so I was expecting the rejection. Thought I would give it a shot though.
Summary of Experience:
I LOVE THIS PLACE! The staff and students were awesome, facilities are awesome, and anything lacking with clinical sites can easily be made up with existing sites in the northeast. The atmosphere was really welcoming, I withdrew all applications as soon as I was accepted!
Summary of Experience:
Really great program, students were really happy and the interview went wonderfully. Clinically sites are awesome too. My big turn off was the enormous class size, people seemed to get lost in the mix easily since all of the health sciences students are in the same building
Summary of Experience:
Seems like a great school for classroom experience, but I wasnt so sure about clinical sites and in private none of the students I talked to had anything great to say
