How did you prepare for the interview?

reviewed my application, school info, and SDN website

What impressed you positively?

The staff was VERY nice and accomodating. The students seemed to really know their peers.

What impressed you negatively?

My interview with a faculty member was so short.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I would've known how much walking was involved. I definitely would've worn more comfortable shoes!

What are your general comments?

The school is exactly as I expected it be. I was a bit disappointed in the lack of enthusiasm from students, but that could've been due to the exams that were happening for 2nd year students. I also found that the other interviewees were not as friendly as those I've been with at other schools.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
