What are your general comments?
I had a great experience. This is definitely my #1. All the staff was great, the students were very helpful too. I went to one class and talked to students afterwards. That was nice b-cuz I know those students weren't preped before hand. It was good to see how happy they were and how laid back the atmosphere seemed.

The facilities are really nice!! They put their money where their mouth is. There are lots of different facilities really close there. I also liked how honest my student interviewer was in answering my questions.

The only thing I didn't like was another guy in the interview group. He had an overwhelming attitude of arrogance. Everything about the school was great!

I think I was fairly prepared for the interview. But, if you interview during the winter, make sure you bring a coat; you do have to wak outside to different buildings sometimes for interviews.
