How did you prepare for the interview?

I actually completely forgot about this site until someone in the interview group mentioned it so I didn't really do any prep

What impressed you positively?

The dean spoke to us and she was very good

What impressed you negatively?

Campus is pretty plain, small, and not very nice. Food not so great. Interviewers very unfriendly and didn't seem like they cared.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How unwelcoming the interviewers were, they really turned me off to the school and I wish I hadn't spent the money to make the trip.

What are your general comments?

I really disliked this interview. I've had a couple interviews already and have been accepted and was really looking forward to this one in the hopes that it would be like the others. It wasn't in that the interviewers sucked--they were so unfriendly and nonresponsive. It was like I was talking to some rocks outside because they didn't react very much at all and kept flipping through my file while I was answering questions. The interview process itself was pretty standard with the info session, interview, and tour. I found this place to be very average and nothing stood out to me as unique or exciting.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
