What impressed you positively?

How friendly everyone was, how close the dorms were to the academic buildings.

The cold, the price of housing, the size of the class, my student interviewer seemed like he's rather be doing something else, there weren't that many minorities being interviewed that day.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The lack of diversity at the school

What are your general comments?

I liked the fact that the day didn't start until 11. That made it easy for people flying in that morning. The food was not good. The tour was bad but that was only due to the frigid temperature. My faculty interviewer was a nice guy and I really liked the wrap-up. Having a chance to sit and chat with the students more informally was great. A lot of students showed up for it too.
