No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Prepared answers to typical questions, but none were asked. I was just myself and ended up just chatting like she and he were friends or colleagues, while remaining humble and appreciative.

What impressed you positively?

The brand new facilities were extremely impressive!! The curriculum, the paperless format, the city.

What impressed you negatively?

The male to female ratio. (A lot more men, yet a lot of women were administrators - just strange.)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

First, I was interviewed by a student. It was very comfortable. He asked questions regarding grades, but it was easy to talk to him. Second, I was interviewed by an administrator. Initially, she was hard and intimidating with her questions, but then she loosened up. I think she even cracked a smile.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
