What are your general comments?

I was able to meet with my student contact before my first interview and that really helped calm my nerves. Both interviews were very relaxed...professional but relaxed. They really wanted to know a lot about me and my past experiences. Both interviewers took notes during the interview (don't let this freak you out). I was able to speak with many of the current students during the down time (they were in and out of the lounge in between classes). Overall it was a great experience. The facilities are wonderful and the students are very nice!
