What are your general comments?

There were approximately 25-30 interviewing on the same day. When we arrived, we were handed a packet of papers some of which needed to be filled out and handed in during the interview. They divided the students into two groups. While one group toured the campus, the other group stayed for one-on-one interviews. Then, the groups switched. After the interviews and campus tour, we had lunch.

UT is going to start a satellite program on the Knoxville campus beginning 2006. All students will complete their first year on the Memphis campus. Then, approximately 60 students will transfer to the Knoxville campus to complete the remaining portion of the program. This will increase the class size from 125 students to ~175 students, starting with the entering class of 2005.
