How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN, read the website, and made questions to ask. Had a mock interview.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities were great. The culture engendered in the students was great. They made all people feel welcome.

What impressed you negatively?

The interviews were closed file, so you had to talk about yourself. I don't know if my interviewer really read my essay and knew what I did.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Be prepared to talk about yourself and your experiences.

What are your general comments?

I liked it. They were both nice. I was real nervous. I wished I would have let them know about my experiences a little more.
