Should I bring my husband???

bad idea. This looks as if you can't make a decision without him. I did the same thing and was told that. I was told that i should wait until i accepted the job then give hubby a tour.

the idea behind you getting a tour is to introduce you to people you will be working with and to get an idea of hospital layout. you may have questions during the tour that come up. My instructor told me that this was part of the interveiw and to veiw it as such.

I think this depends on the school. My school (Medical College of Georgia) offers a spouse/significant other forum on the days of the interviews. This is a time where some of the spouses/significant others of those in the program are there to talk with them about what it is like during the program. It is encouraged that they also go on a tour of the campus, which is not part of the interview. But I will tell you, even with this, there is no way to truely prepare a spouse/significant other for what they are about to experience when you get into a program.

It is not a good idea to bring a spouse, especially a husband. Sad to say, but we are females who need to prove that we can think and make decisions independently of our spouse.

Of course, I discussed going back to school with my husband, etc In my interview, I did talk about how I had very strong support of my husband and that family was important to me, tho.
