SDN, School Website

What impressed you positively?

they don't try to hide anything... lots of information on anything you could think of... lots of question and answer time. Great facilities with access to public transit. The students I spoke with loved the school and said they had plenty of time to hang out with friends/spouses.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing

What are your general comments?

I had a professor and a 4th year student interview me. The interview itself was very low-key, non-stressful. They had obviously read my file a few times because they knew a lot about me.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
