SDN, read about healthcare, read about the school

What impressed you positively?

The students were all very complimentary of the school and really seemed to enjoy their education.

What impressed you negatively?

While parts of the school were very nice, other parts were remniscient of a dungeon.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

As many others have said, that the interviews were much more laid-back than I expected. The interviewers really just wanted to talk and get a peak inside your head.

What are your general comments?

When we applicants arrived, we were given short talks about how the admissions committee works and financial aid. Then we ate lunch with a few of the students there. After lunch, we sat around for quite some time while waiting for our 2 interviews (One was 1-on-1, open file; the other was 2-on-1, semi-open). The waiting made the day seem rather drawn-out, but conversation killed time pretty well.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
