What impressed you positively?

everyone seemed happy to be there and really gung ho about thier school and the opportunities it provides, the city seemed like it could defenitely be cool, the other interviewees were pretty laid back and seemed down to earth which is nice

What impressed you negatively?

well i had to switch faculty interviewers at the last moment and that was kind of a hassle, but that was simple miscommunication and it wasnt really negative, just slightly annoying

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

they have a two hour tour, and they mean it, it didnt last a second shorter. you're gonna be walking around the whole campus and while its interesting it gets long, if you can imagine. that seems to be a big part of the day, so be ready for it.

What are your general comments?

it was good, i came out with a positive view of the school and the potential it could have in my future, now i just gotta endure the wait for a decision.
