What are your general comments?
Like I said, everyone there is soooo enthusiastic. The faculty are some of the best around and they actually seem very excited to pass on their knowledge to the their first class. The new school will have all the newest and latest technology. I would recommend everyone to check this place out.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Why should we accept you (and not accept you) over other students? (strengths and weaknesses)
What was the most interesting question?
Describe in one word what makes the world turn.
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, read over AACOMAS app and secondaries.
What was the most difficult question?
Describe how you handled yourself when you were in an ethical situation.
What impressed you positively?
The staff and the description of the new facilities.
What impressed you negatively?
Not much. At first the area did, but then it kind of grows on you. There's tons of outdoor stuff to do and there's a national state park right next to you. It's good for me because I like nature. And there's LOTS of nature around you. Oh, the bad part was that the location is so far from the airport.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
If you flew into the next closest airport, other than Knoxville, tickets would have been about a hundred dollars cheaper, so check on that. Also, look in the forums to see who else is interviewing with you that day. Ya'll could split the rental car. I wish I had done that because we had 3 of us pretty much just following each other to and from the airport and the school. Could have saved money there and also had some company for the drive.
