No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read my application, SDN, read current event articles, CWRU website.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are incredible. I stayed with a host and had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with a group of students, and I really liked them.

What impressed you negatively?

The Cleveland area. The areas close to campus seemed nice, but the rest of the city seemed poor/dangerous.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It is cold there! Many of the hosts are 1st-yr students and have only been students for a few months. I wish I'd stayed with a host with more experience/knowledge regarding the school.

What are your general comments?

Very relaxed. I was fairly nervous because this was my first interview, but I didn't get any difficult questions. The interviewer just told me about the school and asked for clarification where he had any questions about my application.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
