Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

All of the students seem to love PCOM and are very enthusiastic about the school. Students are very involved in activities and seem very down to earth and not competitive. The campus is very nice with state-of-the-art facilities.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

During the interview my interviewers just sat with their heads down writing notes. There was no conversation and it was hard to judge how they felt about me, but I got an acceptance two weeks later so they must have liked me!

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

The interview day was relaxed and everyone was friendly. The day begins with breakfast with a professor and a few students. I was nervous so I didn't really want to eat anything. But the students are great for answering all your questions. Then you go right to the interviews. I was first and when my interview was over we just sat in the ''fishbowl'' for 3 hours until everyone was finished interviewing. Students would stop in and say hi and answer any questions we had. Then there is a tour and the whole day is over by 1pm. I got my acceptance letter two weeks after my interview and I can't wait to begin school at PCOM in the fall!
