How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Talking with students, and just reviewing my application.

What impressed you positively?

The school itself is phenomenal and was my favorite location of the 13 programs I interviewed at. Another point that stuck out was the quality of faculty. I can easily say that it seemed that UNC had the most renowned faculty of the schools I interviewed with. Lastly, the overall feel and happiness of the students stuck with me as well.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really! Phenomenal program.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

This school was unreal, and I would highly suggest applying there even though it is extremely competitive as an OOS student. They are the best of both worlds (world renowned, great COA). I was lucky enough to interview at many other outstanding programs, but UNC definitely stood out.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Nothing really.
