I would just like to offer up one bit of advice. One thing I was VERY glad that I did when interviewing was going to more than one school to interview. If you get interviews at more than one school then I would interview at at least two of them. Of course if you only get one interview, then do that one and don't worry about it. But, I was almost sure that I wanted to go to UHCO. I interviewed there, got in state tuition and several scholarships. I was pretty much set to go. I decided to interview at PUCO just to see what a different school was like. I ended up loving it so much at PUCO that I took that school instead of UHCO, even though it was more expensive. I just fit in better up there. So basically I think it is a good idea to check out more than one school just to get the feel of it. You never know if you'll like it better at another place if you never go to different places. You don't have to take this advice, but if you get a chance I would do it.

Have fun interviewing!

... this is really interesting advice. Im from NY and most people would assume I would want to go to SUNY because of the cheap tution, and the close proximity to my house and family. I went to the open house, and was like ok, not bad... but questioned on whether the atmosphere was for me. Over the summer, I got a chance to visit ICO and loved it. The clinic, dorming, and just the environment. Now as most of you know, the tution there is more than double for an in-state student at SUNY. Decisions...Decisions... Now, this past week, I was able to head up to Boston and visit NECO. The tution is pretty similar to ICO, but lacks the dorming. Right now, if I got accepted to all three, I would probably choose to go to either ICO or NECO, depending on the interview went, and my interactions with the staff/faculty. anyways, i guess what I'm trying to say is that I agree with Oogilily... if you have the time/money... go visit these schools, cause it can really help.

ps. im not sure why, i wrote this, i think its cause its friday and im bored.

gl to everyone.
