6 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

1 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN questions, mock interview

What impressed you positively?

Cutting travel costs by having the interview virtual and by having a Zoom prep session beforehand.

What impressed you negatively?

They seem to be promoting themselves as a school as opposed to getting to know me as a candidate.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

30 seconds is not a lot of time to prepare answers when they ask for answers to be "clear, insightful, and complete".

What are your general comments?

Did not deter this school from being near top of my list but I did not like the interview format.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

I emailed the office multiple times about a technical issue and they never got back to me. It was incredibly frustrating. Working on responsiveness would be helpful!
