Went over my AADSAS app and reviewed my reasons for pursuing dentistry. They ask very fair questions and seems like they just want to get to know you and your journey to dental school.

What impressed you positively?
-
I was impressed with the full transparency of the program. CNU knows it is a new school still under initial accreditation. In my eyes, the leadership team and info Zoom sessions explained that part very well. They also are aware that it is a private school with no federal loans (AT THE MOMENT), but they don't beat around the bush at all. They informed me very clearly about their program and what it entails. I respect that greatly.
What impressed you negatively?
-
Nothing. I do not know why forums such as Reddit talk so negatively about the school. Every school starts out somewhere and from what I witnessed the students seem very happy. I could tell clearly that the leadership team cares about its students. It is a smaller cohort, but that has its benefits in my opinion.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
-
Wished that the school maybe would have provided some sort of interview prep, but at the same time maybe they want to see how students respond on the fly? Just my 2 cents.
