What impressed you positively?

This was the best interview session I've been to. The morning is very relaxed and organized. The students, faculty, and administration are truly laid back and happy to be there. From that, you feel very comfortable.

What impressed you negatively?

Eat a big breakfast. You don't get lunch until 1pm (after your two interviews).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Lunch is served at 1pm, so be prepared.

What are your general comments?

UConn had a great interview session. The admissions staff helped the small group of interviewers relax and break the ice amongst each other. Then the interviews were take care of. In the afternoon, everybody has lunch with the tour guides, a tour, then a problem-based learning session. Everybody was truly relaxed and didn't try to sell the school.
