What impressed you positively?

I loved this school. The area is really beautiful and the school was nice. The students on the tour were really great and answered all of my questions thoroughly. They also gave us their emails to address future questions. Altough the tour was pretty disorganized, I had a good time and I felt like the relaxed atmosphere of the tour suited me. I was amazed that Georgeen and Mrs. Sullivan knew my name especially coming from a large university where no one seems to care what anyone's name is. The speakers during the day were honest and up front about the school and curriculum. I could not have been more impressed. I really loved this school.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing that I can think of except that we didn't have nametags like at other schools and so i couldn't remember the other interviewees' names, which was sad because I really liked them and enjoyed talking with them.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was going to write down so much and that i shouldn't have forgotten my pen at the hotel signing my credit card bill. Also, there is a Georgetown University bus and a Georgetown city bus, which I didn't realize until I got on the wrong one.

What are your general comments?

This experience was a lot more relaxed than I had envisioned. I learned a lot about the school and the students and I really hope to go to this school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
