No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Typing out my answers to questions posted on this website and reviewing the personal statement I submitted in my application. I made sure I could anticipate as many follow-up questions as I could think up.

What impressed you positively?

The seemingly great relationship between students and their professors. Also, the students were very enthusiastic about the PBL program as well as OMM. Oh the weather was amazing as were the WHITE-SAND BEACHES.

What impressed you negatively?

Coming from a larger city, Bradenton itself seemed a little po-dunk, but the people definitely were not. Oh and old people can't drive. On a serious note, the campus although very new and modern, is still very small comparatively and rather isolated from the city. Again, maybe because I am used to a metropolis setting. Lunch was half a wrap, bag of chips, and warm can of coke.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I could have taken a bus to the beach (on anna maria), because there is virtually no parking on the island.

What are your general comments?

Overall the interview experience was really nice, and pretty much just as the other posts described. Unlike the negative impression posts, I didn't feel that they were trying to ''sell'' the school. The students and faculty were sincere and seemed honestly proud of their school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
