10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reading SDN and its forums (from past and current cycles), Utilizing the career development center from my school

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are brand spanking new. However, mostly, the students, faculty, and administration are extremely nice and welcoming! Average boards scores (from the inaugural class) was fine (in my book)

What impressed you negatively?

There are no close apartments or stores that is within walking distance around BCOM itself. Having a car will be kind of useful (for convenience sake). However, I believe living there without a car is do-able. There is transportation provided by NMSU.
