What impressed you positively?
How nice and enthusiastic the staff/faculty/students were. They were extremely organized and positive -- this really motivated me to go to their school even more.
What impressed you negatively?
The location is a bit weird and there is a lot of construction going on, but I didn't get a chance to see the rest of the island.. I think there are some really nice parts. Plus, the city has this whole plan of making a promenade and all this great stuff, so I'm excited..
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
That there is no place to eat on the island other than the cafeteria .. you have to drive 15 min to get to a place.
What are your general comments?
It was great.. I was nervous at first during the essay, but the question wasn't too difficult. Steve Davis, the director of admissions ( i think) was awesome at keeping our nerves down. The interviewers were very nice and smiled/nodded a lot while I talked, so that made me feel confident.
