Everybody totally wanted to sell the school to us. They gave us a folder with brochures, a pen, pad of paper, match list, etc. The students and administration alike LOVE the place.

What are your general comments?

The student interview was about one hour and very laid back. It was like meeting a new friend. The faculty interview was a little more formal and it was hard to tell what he thought of me. He either liked me or thought I was a total loser. The day itself was a lot of fun and laid-back.
