How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, UNECOM website, looking over applications, reflecting on specific instances in my life.

What impressed you positively?

The happiness of all the students and faculty at UNECOM. They seems enthusiastic and determined to help in any way they possibly could. The facilities were absolutely beautiful, definately a place where I would like to spend a lot of time...

What impressed you negatively?

I thought the gym was a little bit small, but that is the ONLY thing I can think of, which...is great. I loved it, I really did.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing - felt very well prepared.

What are your general comments?

Much more laid back than I thought my first interview would go. At times we were laughing and seemed to be in more of a conversation, but at other times it was definately more formal. Just being honest and confident really helped me feel at ease. It was very positive, and fun all together...
