What impressed you positively?

The incorporation of newer technology, the OMM lab, and the people.

What impressed you negatively?

We didn't get to see the gym and the library due to the heating being broken in the building that day, but I have heard that they are both pretty small and I wanted to check them out for myself. No big deal though.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it is possible that student loans may not cover the tuition/expenses...

What are your general comments?

The interviewer was nice and pretty laid back, and he was helpful in answering my questions and offering positive advice. The interview was relatively low stress and I think if I had not been so nervous it really would've been quite enjoyable.
