I really enjoyed my experience interviewing here. I think that attending this school will be a unique experience, in that you get to be part of the inaugural class, meaning that clubs, organizations and so on will be started by those of us who are in this class. This also means that we will have a great opportunity to sort of get to have the teachers and administrators to ourselves for a full year, as they won't be teaching second years, just us. Also, because this is a second location of an already well-established medical school I expect to have an excellent education with an updated facility and none or very few of the drawbacks of going to a brand new school. Rocky Vista University has a reputation for using cutting edge technology and producing students that are prepared in every situation. Dean Told, who signs your acceptance letter, said he would come back and haunt us if any of us ever said we couldn't help deliver a baby on a plane because we're "dermatologists" or any other kind of specialty. Which I thought was pretty funny.
I enjoyed interviewing in Colorado as well, and it was very useful to me to see what RVU-UT is trying to achieve. The vision, if you will. The students at RVU-CO were all so happy, they all said it was hard, but they were so cheerful. I am excited to be a part of the first class at RVU-UT, and hope to see a lot of you there as well. Good luck to all of you.
