Responses to the question: "What are two things that you think are going really well in our program?"
Phoenix is a wonderful city to live in, with lots of fun activities both in-town and just a short drive away!
You can learn more in our separate section dedicated to living in Phoenix (under Additional Program Information), but here's just a brief list of the fun things you can do here in your time off:
great hikes, parks, and (surprisingly) water activities here in the Valley of the Sun
multiple professional sports teams
multiple venues to explore the arts
a food scene garnering lots of attention
vibrant nightlife
amazing destinations within a 5 hour drive
Phoenix is one of the more affordable big cities in the U.S. This makes your already-competitive resident salary go a lot further than in other major cities.
