Oh man, the clinic in SCCO is beautiful! It's pretty much brand spankin new! It's pretty high tech. One of the students there said that she saw quite a few clinics while she interviewed in different schools, and SCCO's is easily the most impressive. Also, the facilities (classrooms, etc) were really nice overall.

Clinical opportunities are quite extensive as SCCO has a huge network of outreach clinics, including several out of state (Japan and Hawaii even!!!).

The interview was pretty laid back overall. There are lots of old threads here regarding the interview, just search with the keywords "SCCO interview"

Oh, and the people were super friendly. I asked for where the admin facilities were, and the student personally walked me to there...what an awesome first impression.
