SDN

What impressed you positively?

The facilities were actually pretty awesome - everything was very new.

What impressed you negatively?

my fellow interviewees were a little stand-offish.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How bad the traffic really is from downtown chicago! It took me about 1.5 hours!

What are your general comments?

Overall my experience was positive. My first interviewer was a little dry and difficult to impress, but my second interviewer was really chill and easy to talk to. They each score you and if the difference is greater than 6 points, they will ask you for a third interview which i thought was pretty fair. The dean is really fun to talk to and all the students were really nice and happy to be there. One of my tourguides actually chose to go there over AECOM and hasn't looked back since! The opportunity to do rotations in downtown chicago is actually extremely appealing and removes the school from the semi-rural disadvantages.
