What impressed you positively?

The cohesiveness of the student body and the faculty. I was also a big fan of how open and friendly the students were. They were more than willing to answer questions and talk about their experiences. The faculty seemed more like concerned parents than professors.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing was really negative.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

If you stay at the Millenium Maxwell House, don't forget to call the hotel to get the shuttle to pick you up at the Airport - it doesn't make regular rounds. Nashville is small - if you are used to big city living this might be a little culture shock :)

What are your general comments?

Over all a great experience. The interviewers were really nice, both interviews felt more like informative conversations rather than Q&A interviews.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
