What impressed you positively?
Students are genuinely happy, no sense of the false enthusiam I encountered at Houston. Great campus. Huge emphasis on faculty teaching, and a huge emphasis on the success of each and every student.
What impressed you negatively?
I'm not too keen on the being forced to spend 3rd year in the Valley - it will really only happen to 1 to 4 people, but still, that's not good. Gym facilities were non-existent. Other thant hat, a general attitude of people there that this is not a top school -a good school, but not a top one.
What are your general comments?
Veyr positive - both interviews were laid back, even the one I had with the dean. The students are very friendly and happy with their decision to attend UTHSCSA, the campus is generally a happy, low-stresss place, despite the fact that exams were going on. The suburban setting is great, the visit itself was low-stress and it was generally a good day.
