What are your general comments?

It went well. In the beginning as a group you will meet with the dean (Keat Sanford) and have to say a little about yourself and tell a short story that says something about who you are. Then you will have you 2 interviews (1 faculty, 1 student) then go on the tour and eat lunch. Then (as a group) you will participate in a pbl. At the end of the day you will meet with Keat Sanford again to discuss any issues you may have had during the day or to have him answer any lingering questions you may have.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
