The group interview is so not stressful!

What are your general comments?

So good! The day is really long, but it was so worth it because I had every single one of my questions answered. We started with breakfast and an introductory meeting; then there were two interviews: one short, update-your-file interview and one hour and fifteen minute group interview; we ate lunch at the cafeteria and had a tour of the campus with a first year student and a second year student. There was also an aoptional closing snack and info session about some of Norethwestern's joint degrees.
