What are your general comments?

it was an overall positive experience. but it was also pretty standard. nothing stood out to me that made this school seem special, except for maybe the fact that in your 3rd and 4th year you can move to manhattan. so if locaation is the most important thing, then it is a strong positive quality. but the students did not seem easily approachable and i could not tell the competitve nature of the school. i would go here if i couldn't get into a school i liked more. valhalla is only 30 min from manhattan so that is really nice. stay w/ a student host, it is so convenient and cheap. the day included orientation, financial aid presentation, interviews then tours. I wasn't the happeist after my interview because my interviewer talked too much about himself. boo.
