What impressed you positively?

EVERYTHING. All of the students were so nice, relaxed, and open. Everyone seems to have a really healthy work/life balance. The admissions staff were SO nice and genuinely wanted us to be there--like, before they "let" me leave, the dean came out to shake my hand and make sure all my questions were answered. During my interview, my interviewer commented that I would work really well with another clinician and kept saying "oh I wish you got to meet him!". After my interview ended, she tracked down his contact info and gave it to me. That genuine attention doesn't happen everywhere.

What impressed you negatively?

Literally the only thing I can think of is that the library is small....

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I was absolutely going to fall in love and I will be 100% heartbroken if I don't get in!

What are your general comments?

The interview is VERY casual. My second interviewer did ask one or two *slightly* "tougher" questions--about failures,--but it was done in such a way that it just felt very conversational.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Give students a pen in their interview packer
