What impressed you positively?

the staff, students, everyone seemed geniunely nice, interested and happy to be there. They also seemed pretty pleased with the cost- after a year the student qualifies for in-state tuition, the PBL is definitely a plus

What impressed you negatively?

that parking was a little far from the entrance (or maybe it was just because I got lost). Also there is no gym & housing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

nothing, my friend had done a program there so I sort of knew a lot about the school/program

What are your general comments?

It was low stress, very laid-back and focused on the interviees. Oh and most of the questions are drawn from the application so it's important that you remember everything that you wrote including the classes you took, programs you were involved in... etc

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
