How did you prepare for the interview?

No responses

What impressed you positively?

The interview took place in a beautiful new building and the Case campus seems very nice for a midwestern campus in the middle of the winter.

What impressed you negatively?

My interviewer did not seem to have read my file or be very interested in me because I am not interested in research although I do have a background in research. Also, the first thing that we did was meet with the dean who talked about all of the changes that he will be instituting including requiring a thesis from all studentsl.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There seems to be lots of down time during the day. There is construction on campus so be prepared for a very crowded bus ride if you use the campus line.

What are your general comments?

If you are looking for a research institution, this is probably an excellent place for you, but I just didn't care for the dean, the students, or the curriculum.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
