No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Nothing really. I already had two acceptances, so this was just gravy.

What impressed you positively?

The students were very friendly and laid back. The island is very pretty, and being close to all the good things in the bay area is always a good thing.

What impressed you negatively?

The campus buildings are old and unnattractive. At the same time, they have some pretty neat history.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How much I would like the school!

What are your general comments?

The interview was very laid back. Four interviewers with four interviewees, and they went around the table asking questions. They asked very specific questions about our files, which was great. It gave me an opportunity to talk about the really unique things in my file- my undergrad major, my masters program, etc. I was very impressed by all four interviewers, including the student interviewer.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
