Never submitted, but received a letter from the their Master of Public Health school congratulating me on my MCAT and encouraging me to apply for an MPH!
Summary of Experience:
I declined the interview invite. I toured this school and was very impressed on their commitment to the underserved populations of Cleveland and Ohio, both urban and rural. I understand this school is under great expansion. All in-state, OH residents should consider this school.
Summary of Experience:
Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine.
Probably the nicest people I have ever dealt with. This was my first complete and my first interview and my first acceptance. I was VERY impressed by the school the faculty interviewers, adcom and the positive attitudes and diversity of the student body. This school is expanding all over the state (especially into Cleveland and Columbus) with new campuses. This school rocks and they are really, really nice.
