What was the most difficult question?

All of the questions centered around my checkered academic past. This was only difficult because I was interviewed by the Asst. Dean of Admisions. However, I'm thankful that she did that because it forced me to be myself and open up.

Pulled info from their website, review SDN, made a sheet of possible questions and outlined what points I wanted to make in the interview, reviewed my grades, reviewed my personal statment, reviewed my CV, and spoke with a MS I student who attends the university.

What impressed you positively?

I was impressed with the whole presentation. From beginning to end. The financial aid section was quick and highly informative--explaining the different types of loans the max amount and stuff all in handout {table format}

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The only thing that negatively impressed me was the class size. Other people talk about the beauty of the campus but for me that's no important at all because I feel very rarely am I going to be outside. The class size is about 144 students.

What are your general comments?

It was a great interview. I talked with Dr. Terregino for what felt like an hour (probably was) and then was introduced to Mrs. Oglesby who is the counselor/recruiter for the school. Even the staff was wonderful. Catherine Porter is a hoot. Overall I had a great time, felt right at home, and I hope that I receive an invite into the class of 2005! I can't really outline specific questions because most of the questions were tailored around understanding my unique and complicated academic journey.
