255 students sounds more like a fundraising project

What are your general comments?

it was cool, some of the other interviewees were very friendly and i think ''Jeff'' student are like that too, they seem to like thier school. the interview day is run by students ( and they like dressed up too, at some other schools the students wore jeans?) its really nice that they let you know your status a week after and not string you along for 6-8 weeks (oh yes, you know i am talking about you SUNY)

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
