⭐ Overall Impressions
How did the interview impress you?
Positively 🙂
What was the stress level of the interview?
3 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress
What are your general comments?
It was a good experience. It was a group interview with the group being the interviewers rather than students. In spite of there being three of them to just me, it never felt pressured or high stress. Probably the most positive fact was that I had my acceptance in less than two weeks by certified mail. I absolutely hate the waiting that some schools put you through. I was actually sure enough of the school and my 'fit' there that I withdrew all of my other applications except one after getting the acceptance. This freed me to spend my time working on scholarship applications, etc.
