It was very low key.

A couple more questions though How do you become a WICHE applicant? When is the deadline? How much money do you get?
bchgrl27 said:I think it all depends on what you're looking for in the school. my choices, coming from reno as well, were berkeley, southern cal, and pacific. since i really didn't want to live in california, and i like the small town feel, coming from elko, it really narrowed me down to pacific. the school itself is really small, but they're currently working on new facilities in the neighboring town of hillsboro, where everything seems to be (new shopping, apartments, etc) and is a really nice looking town in general from what i've seen. i think they plan to eventually move the whole optometry school (there's only one building anyway) to the new facility within the next couple of years, most likely during my time there. so i can't really make a judge on the future facilities, but i assume they'll be nice. as for the current ones, they're not bad. pacific is an old school, so its not really the high tech, futuristic type... but it's not bad. from reading other people's responses, it sounds like there are probably more technologically advanced schools out there, so like i said, it depends on what you're looking for. but i really liked the area, which was definitely an important factor for me. and yeah, i'm a WICHE applicant, so i'm crossing my fingers, since pacific's a private school and all
Opt2010 said:Wow, I wish I went to an interview day I just came back from Forest Grove yesterday. The school was good...they told me I got accepted but I'm not so sure if I would consider it a vacation area, although Portland is pretty cool. Living is very cheap there. I was told that a new or 2 br apt is around 600. So good luck to all of those who are interviewing!
