What are your general comments?
It was really great. The other 5 interviewees were talkative, which was nice. Candy and water when you arrive; the interviewers picked you up from the conference room that served as home base. Admissions staff was really pleasant. They actually put you ina minivan abnd take you around the VCOM/Virginia tech campuses, and Blacksburg. Find out what a Hokie is before you come. It's really great that V-Tech is close by. Besutiful campus, and adds a lot of life to the area. registrar and Fin Aid ladies were very straigtforward, and really made me believe that VCOM goes the extra mile and spends a lot of time on helping each student. Great day. Blue Ridge Mts are stunning!
