What are your general comments?

Aside from the debochle with my flight out, the interview went REALLY well!! The faculty who talked to us were all really excited about the program, and seemed genuinely interested in helping the students. The students seemed to really be happy at the school, but were also willing to talk about what they didn't like. As I've heard so many times in the feedback, I really liked the school far more after the interview than I did going in!
