3 out of 10

What are your general comments?

Warning, USF will interview you even if they have no intention of offering you an acceptance. Both of my interviwers told me that I would definitely get accepted. Later I was told I had a poor chance of getting in due to things they saw as lacking in my application. They shouldn't have offered me an interview and wasted my time. They also said I had typos in my app. essay, which was completely untrue. There was not a single mistake in the entire thing. I am guessing they were unfamiliar with certain terminology used and assumed they were mistakes. It might pay to pick up a dictionary.
💬 Interview Process

What impressed you positively?

TGH

What impressed you negatively?

School facilities. My first interviewer kept me late. My seconnd interviewer upset that I was late and the interview was cut short.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Interviewers do not have to be members of the admission committee. It destroys the interview process because all of their impressions of you get reduced to a couple of sentences quickly jotted down.

Admissions staff
