What impressed you positively?

Just about everything. But what impressed me most were everyone's attitudes, from the faculty to the staff to the students. Everyone seemed so active and genuinely passionate about the school and where the school was going.

What impressed you negatively?

I've never been a fan of Cleveland. Of course, my being from Pittsburgh might bias me a little :).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How flexible the electives are.

What are your general comments?

At 8:30 the Dean gave his spiel about the school, Dr Horowitz has a clear vision about where he wants to take the school and is obviously excited about taking it there. I interviewed from 9-10, then sat in a class where I understood absolutely nothing, then had the financial aid talk, lunch, and tour after. Overall, it was awesome and Case has quickly become my top choice. It's a very open-minded and progressive atmosphere, and everyone seems to love it there.
