I've been on a tour there, and I wasn't exactly thrilled with the look of the campus. But i seemed to like their methods. (they seem to be really clinically focused.) I don't know of any students that came out of their program.

For what it's worth, i'm trying to decide between Western and Loma Linda. I'm leaning towards loma linda, but i just want to get someone else's opinion on it. It's rather tough just doing a comparison on your own.
 
I visited Western in december and I was completely unimpressed with the program. Also the neighborhood seemed pretty sketch. I looked up the crime stats for Pomona and they had 20 murders last year for a city of 100,000 thats quite a bit. Also Their admission stadards seemed pretty low. I think thier average GPA last year was a 3.0 needless to say as soon as I received my acceptance from LLU I withdrew my app from western
