What was the most difficult question?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read through my application materials and reviewed the CU SOD web site.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are brand new and the architecture look well thought out and intelligently organized.

What impressed you negatively?

With a huge new biomedical campus being built students still have to pay for parking. Would a free parking lot be too much to ask?

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I would have had lunch before I went to the afternoon interview. The process lasted longer than I expected.

What are your general comments?

It was very positive. I was concerned going in because I had heard CU could be adversarial. I certainly found just the opposite to be true.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
