What are your general comments?

Two interviews. One with a faculty member and the other with a 2nd-year student. My interviews were both in the afternoon. The faculty interviewer came in 15 minutes early to give herself some time to review my application. Both interviews were relaxing and mostly conversational. I ended up interviewing for longer than I anticipated. I got the impression that they really wanted to make me feel comfortable and wanted to get to know me.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
