How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN website, VCOM website, AACOMAS application, talked to people who had interviewed at VCOM and other schools

What impressed you positively?

Everyone at VCOM is extremely friendly and down to earth. I was really impressed by the warmth of the school and their eagerness to make the day really special and stress free. I felt like I was at home with friends. The Admissions Director even took us out to give us a tour of Blacksburg and showed us different places where we should live, and places to shop and eat at. It was really awesome. Plus the school is very technologically advanced.

What impressed you negatively?

Absolutely nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That there was no reason for me to stress about the interview at all.

What are your general comments?

My interview experience at VCOM was absolutely amazing. I interviewed at other schools before VCOM and I can truly say that VCOM was the best in the sense that they are really friendly and make you feel really welcomed. Some of the other schools I interviewed at were so impersonal and made it seem as though all they really cared about was numbers. VCOM placed an emphasis on numbers, but an even emphasis on getting to know you as a person. The school is very technologically advanced and has the best professors in all of the U.S.
