What are your general comments?
It was awesome, we got to see the town of Blacksburg, and the students at the school would peak in and say hello and offer advice and just chat with us which was neat. A lot of people are worried because they have not graduated a class yet but they are so state of the art and have the best faculty I really doubt they will have problems with their accrediation. Make sure you have lots of questions because they will ask you if you do...millions of times.
💬 Interview Process

When I take your file to the committee what is the one thing you want me to remember or say about you?
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, my secondary and primary application, and spoke with friends who had interviews.
What impressed you positively?
Super technologically advanced. They are affiliated with Virginia Tech which is neat because you get the feel of a large school. Everyone was super nice and the students LOVED their school.

Nothing really, I thought their library was small but all their books are found online. The cold weather is scary.
