How did you prepare for the interview?

Didn't really, read a few things on SDN, but really there's no need to prep for this one, they were super-nice

What impressed you positively?

Student life seemed chill, students seemed happy, new building (phat!) being built, caring faculty

What impressed you negatively?

The first hour and a half was long and boring presentations, the visit was not very personal

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That they don't validate parking and that I was gonna have to pay 11 bucks

What are your general comments?

The day started off with an hour long brag-fest about the school (impressing but boring), then a presentation about financial aid, then a personal interview, observation in the clinic, and lunch with dental students. Extremely chill, could not have been a more laid back interview.
