How did you prepare for the interview?

review my application and practice questions

What impressed you positively?

everybody was very nice and helpful, students seemed happy. someone cheered me on for not wearing a black suit. All the faculty and president have an open door policy.

What impressed you negatively?

didn't like how students live off campus, but transportation seems to be okay.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

they hadn't received my letters of rec. it was sent out back in Nov so it was probably lost in the mail.

What are your general comments?

My stress level was insanely high just because of the missing letters of rec. I was so preoccupied with calling the committee staff back at my school to get them to fax it in asap, I didn't have much time to relax and talk to other applicants. But once it was taken care of I had a great time and I felt I had a great interview. It was only suppose to be 30 minutes, but we talked overboard to 40 mins. The interviewer was really interested in some of the stuff I was involved in and we hit it off quite well.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
