How did you prepare for the interview?

Meditated and performed my yoga routine the night before. Nah, just went over this site's interview questions.

What impressed you positively?

Great facility, super faculty. I liked the campus layout. Who cares if it used to be a strip mall?

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really, but the immediate surrounding area didn't have much in terms of fast food or stores like Wal-Mart.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The committee reviews your file the very next day and I was missing one of my letters. They told me my file wouldn't get reviewed until all materials were received. To all you upcoming interviewees, I would call in a few days before the interview to check to make sure your file is complete. They will let the letter be faxed if needed.

What are your general comments?

Nice presentations, relaxing tour, and laid back interview. It was a great experience.
