I've been making the dread application process. I've already gotten rejections from Goucher and Bennington, but I just got a call this morning from Mt. Holyoke asking for an interview (still waiting on LaSalle and Columbia to respond, and I'm waiting for the fall application period to open up for Tufts). Anyone out there attend there or graduated? What's the dirt? The only reference I can find about it is on a thread last updated in 2011 and it sounded like then that it was full of gunners. Have things changed? They seem to have a great acceptance rate to medical schools. Current head of the program seems to be Dr. David Gardner.

Most of the complaints seem to be that its 'isolated' compared to say Bryn Mawr but as I'm from Alaska that really doesn't make a difference to me. Can't get much more isolated than I am now. The place has a Greyhound stop, which means its better than what I've got now. I'm not excited to possibly find myself in the trenches with a bunch of gunners. I can manage -- I made it through a theater and dance program mostly intact -- but forewarned is forearmed and all.
