learned about the school, looked at sdn, read over my application

What impressed you positively?

happy students, close and friendly community, the fact that the faculty and administration really care about students, and my interviewers seemed to be genuinely interested in me. the area is really pretty, it was so nice to actually see some scenery!

What impressed you negatively?

possibly somewhat conservative atmosphere, but most people said charlottesville also has a pretty liberal side as well. also there did not seem to be much diversity among the students.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing really...the airport is tiny! kinda funny, though it was really nice.

What are your general comments?

this was definitely my most enjoyable interview experience so far. my student host was awesome, everyone was so friendly and helpful, and my interviewers were incredibly nice and made the interview really relaxed and enjoyable. they know your file really well and find interesting questions to ask you. the whole day was really low-stress, and the lunch and tour were great!
