What impressed you positively?

The campus seems somewhat isolated in the city, although the view is nice.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was not expecting this interview to be the least laid back of all of my interviews. It could also have been that I was strung out after travelling to three cities in a row. I also had a student interviewer who was very nice.
