What impressed you positively?

The campus is beautiful! The students who led our tour were very nice and helpful; they also helped to put us at ease for our interviews. The students seemed genuinely happy.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That my taxicab driver wouldn't know where the hell it was! It was two stoplights down from Long Island University and he claimed he had no idea where it was! Good thing I left my hotel plenty early! I wish I had of known I was going to have TWO interviews!

What are your general comments?

The day was supposed to start at 11:30 as it was an afternoon session. Didn't start until 12:15! We had lunch and met our 2nd year tour guides who were very cool. Had an excellent tour of the campus (NYCOM's portion of NYIT encompasses three buildings). The interviews were pretty conversational in nature so I don't know why I was so nervous. The day ended after our second interviews at about 3.
