The interviewers would like to understand the types of schools you are interested in. Knowing where you are applying will help them better understand if Loma Linda University will meet your specific needs and educational desires or goals. You should be transparent when answering this question but avoid saying anything offensive, such as, 'this school is my last choice.' Choose the number one reason you want to attend Loma Linda University and focus on that.

"I have applied to four other dental schools. Those schools are A, B, C, and D. My interest in Loma Linda University is strong because you are highly regarded in the dental industry. The reputation of Loma Linda University is unmatched. I would be so proud to say that I graduated from this school."

The interviewers want students who are honored to be chosen to attend the Loma Linda University Dental Program. If you say that you have applied to many other schools and that Loma Linda does not rank high on your list, they may pass you over for another candidate.

"I have not applied to any other dental schools. I only want to go to Loma Linda University and will not stop applying until I get accepted to your Dental Program."
