What was the most difficult question?

Specifically asked if I'd interviewed at a specific school which is higher ranked and in-state for me (I had) and it made me feel very uncomfortable. Not difficult to answer but I definitely felt like they were trying to yield protect pretty early in the interview.

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

I reviewed my application, read and thought about questions on SDN, and did more research on the school.

What impressed you positively?

Admissions at UCF are more open than any other school I've been to, which is very nice. The students also all seemed very friendly, and I love their walking desks. They also gave us food, which was appreciated :).

What impressed you negatively?

One of my interviewers continuously brought up his child and asked questions implying I wouldn't go to UCF. He also implied that a refugee group I work with aren't really refugees because of where they come (they are legally refugees) which seemed discourteous.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

It totally depends (as always) on who you get as your interviewers. One of my interviewers was super nice and I enjoyed talking with her, but the other was very intense and seemed to be searching for faults.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
