What impressed you positively?

The proximity to San Fran.

What impressed you negatively?

Everything. The walls were dirty and had holes in them, it was located on an old abandoned naval base. When I asked students why they were there they said they didn't get in anywhere else. No cafeteria. After the day was over I realized that I had not heard anything about the program other than how they go through their admissions process and the waitlist policy.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Horrible school location, unsafe area, students are there by default.

What are your general comments?

I was interviewed in a group and I only got asked a few questions 3 of which were the same question reworded. They shouldn't make people spend time and money to visit if they are only going to give you less tan 10 mins. of speaking time.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
