What impressed you positively?

The students were amazing-- really friendly and down-to-earth. They seemed very happy to be there.

What impressed you negatively?

Their professor made a deal with the first-year class that if 80% of them showed up for class on a day when the guest lecturer was visiting, the guest lecture wouldn't be on the exam. They couldn't even get 50% attendance.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

New Orleans is definitely not a city to spend just one day in-- I should have stayed the weekend.

What are your general comments?

I had an extremely positive experience; Tulane quickly moved from being in my top 3 to being my top choice. Two of my interviewers were very friendly and relaxed; the other one wasn't too nerve-wracking :) Good interview, good school.
