nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How stress free the school and students would make my first interview experience.

What are your general comments?

The interview day is long but very relaxed. You start off with icebreakers and hear about the school in general. Then tour the school and go on your interviews. After lunch, you tour TMC (which is a long walk but not awful on the feet ladies) listen to a student panel, and then go home. There is plenty of downtime between events and lots of students around to answer questions.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
