"I came to Barry because I was looking for a small campus with a masters level PA Program in Florida. I was attracted by the use of technology within the program ie interactive videoconferencing between the campuses, as well as, the requirement of lap tops and hand held palm devices as key tools within the classroom. Lastly, I was also very interested in experiencing the warm Miami weather and sunshine. I am from Connecticut and the winters can sometimes be bone chilling, so I was looking forward to a little heat for a change."

"This was the one school that I interviewed at that the faculty didn't quiz me on the current medical insurance crisis. If politicians and people that have been in the medical field for decades can't figure out the solution, what makes anyone think an applicant to PA school would have any groundbreaking insights? Instead I was asked about my family and my hometown first, and then asked what I wanted to do in the future. I actually felt that Barry's faculty genuinely cared about me as a person first. And throughout the couple years that have gone by, I have never been let down by Barry's faculty. They have always had an open door policy and will have a conversation about any concerns I might have. My advisor has been extraordinary in helping lift my confidence about the future and has given me resolve to believe in my abilities. Overall, coming to Barry was probably one of the best decisions I have ever made"
