There honestly wasn't anything.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The only thing I wish I would have known was the final outcome... and that it wouldn't work out in my favor. But that's just being ridiculous. :)
What are your general comments?
-
I arrived the night before the interviews. A current student picked me up and I stayed at her house. She was very helpful and gave me a number of invaluable tips for the people I would meet. Interviews ran all day for two days, totaling 15 interviews in all. I met with my POI first and last and really felt as though I got all of my questions answered. Meeting so many people was exhausting, but it really helped to provide a more complete picture of the entire program.
What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
Success!
