What are your general comments?

We got there and we had an ice breaker with a person from the office of admissions. Then the Head of Admissions and the Dean spoke to us. They were both very poised and gave us good information. Then the groups were divided in two. One group went on interviews first and the other group went on campus tours first. Then the groups switched. I was the very last person to interview which was kind of stressful, but paid off in the end. I'm definitely going there next year, and sent my money in already!
