University of New England Reviews of Doctorates in Health Sciences

"This program is very much based on self-teaching and developing long-term learning skills. At first, this is a very hard thing to get used to, as in undergraduate school we were lectured at constantly. In this environment we work in small groups frequently, are tested frequently, and are responsible for knowing the material on our own. We have minimal lecture hours, which can be both good and bad, however it forces us to be independent and take responsibility of our own learning. Depending on the subject, I wish there were more lecture hours because I personally have a challenging time learning from a text book."

"Excellent program with high expectations. Challenges you in order to learn the material well. Prepared for clinical rotations and feel ready to practice on your own by the end! PA program"

"Pros: Good Anatomy Dept, Excellent fellow students Cons: Tuition cost is very high"

"I will be attending UNE-COM in 2013. Beautiful setting, minutes from the ocean in southern maine, great place to go to medical school."

"The Program is extremely competitive, challenging, but worth applying. Educational support is great. Faculty is open to student's comments."
