How did you prepare for the interview?

mock interviews, UVM website and brochure, talked to students, SDN

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The students appeared exceptionally down-to-earth. There doesn't seem to exist the same competitive attitude that can be found at other schools. Much more collegial at UVM.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The school is under renovation therefore we could only tour the older, more archaic portions of the school (which most likely were the motivation to renovate in the first place).

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

You are told upon your arrival in the morning who will be interviewing you in the afternoon so you can do a little research on them in the student lounge, if you are so inclined.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

The interview was, as most students describe, very laid back. My interviewer made a conscious effort to avoid the traditional, patronizing rhetoric and instead focused on those areas of my application that were really exceptional. There were no trick questions, just open-ended directional comments that allowed for a free flow of ideas.
