What impressed you negatively?

The interviewers were rude. They put down their own students. I was especially unimpressed with the attitude of one of the interviewers, who seemed mad she had to interview me since I was the last interview of her day. This school made the other schools I interviewed at seem better in comparison. They need to realize all of these students have other interviews, they are not the only fish in the sea. Treat those coming to your school with respect.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Consider this school if you can genuinely afford to live in Manhattan and love the city. There are schools out there just as good in much more affordable areas that will leave a better impression on you.

What are your general comments?

Don't forget, you are feeling out this school as much as they are feeling out you! Apply around. Once I got to this school I did not find it impressive.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

To increase the eco-friendliness of this school, have recycling. Also, remember the attitude you show affects the feelings students have. If you are bickering amongst yourselves, students see this and remember. It affects the way they feel about the school.
