What research did you conduct on our school before choosing to apply to Western University School of Dental Medicine?

"I researched several dental schools, including yours, before applying to Western University School of Dental Medicine. I started by interviewing alumni I know and spoke with a couple of students currently in the dentistry program. Last year, I attended the open house here as well. Your school left a very positive impression on me, which is why I chose to apply here."

First and foremost, understand that Western University does not want to hear that you blindly sent out applications to every dental school possible in hopes that something would stick. As you answer, you want to share with the interviewers the consideration you put into your application. Before your interview with the Western University School of Dental Medicine, think about the qualities that drew you there and how you went about researching those qualities. Some great things to discuss would be talking with current or former students of the program, visiting an open house, or conducting extensive online research on the program.
