How did you prepare for the interview?

I visited the schools website as well as other interview tip sites and prepared some questions that I would ask them.

What impressed you positively?

It truly sounds like an excellent curriculum, friendly staff, beautiful campus, and all the students I talked to were very pleased with their experience thus far.

What impressed you negatively?

Being the first group of interviewers they were somewhat disorganized from the itinerary they had provided us with.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Bring many questions because there are several people that will talk to you throughout the day and some of them will be your interviewers later on in the day. You want to make a good impression early on.

What are your general comments?

Overall it was a very positive and yet stressful experience for me being that it was my first interview. One of my interviewers really drilled me with questions and I think played the bad guy. He seemed disinterested and non-responsive to my answers. However later on some students told me he does that to everyone so dont let it bother you, it is stressful enough without it. Ultimately, I think it would be a great school to attend.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
