What impressed you positively?

The tour was conducted by an upbeat student who was happy to be there and had lots of info to share about the school.

What impressed you negatively?

My interview seemed extremely nonchalant and unorganized. I understand the need for a relaxed setting but I had spent the time to dress up in a suit and tie and my interviewer looked like he barely had had time to come his hair, let alone wash his jeans and fleece. Also, the general atomosphere was stuffy and I felt like we were supposed to feel like we were privileged to be there. I didn't feel welcomed

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I was totally unimpressed and disappointed by the majority of the admissions staff. They are unfriendly and would prefer to not talk to you or answer questions if they could. The school seems ok but the lecture halls are all underground and they look uncomfortable. Overall, I'm sure it is a fine institution but the school is a reflection of its northern climate, cold.
