I'm definitely excited to learn more about this place on interview day! I did not have the letters of recommendation they wanted, but apparently that's okay for a non-traditional applicant.
The interview went pretty well! The campus is beautiful, associated with Westchester Medical Center which is a trauma 1 hospital, and is fairly secluded with nice student housing across the street. The interview day was relaxed, the MMIs were fun, and the facilities get me excited!
