How did you prepare for the interview?

Used this website, a book, and family and friends for questions and practice (a definite overkill for these interviews)

The kindness and sincerety of the faculty and staff.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Parking is a problem and some of the facilities are old looking (what do you expect from the 70s).

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The "exit interview" is a great chance to express your desires to go to Shreveport.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

The overall experience was great. All the interviewees meet in a conference and introduce themselves to Dr. Kennedy, followed by two small lectures from other faculty about the curriculum, ending with a financial aide lecture. Next, the three interviews (two 30 min. blind, and the exit interview, open-file ~10 min.) take place over a 2 hr. period followed by an hour tour of the school, given by multiple students. The interviewers were some of the best self-esteem boosters I have ever met. Don't sweat these interviews. Best advice is to relax and be yourself, oh yeah, and read the rest of the questions people posted.
