Nothing really. Everything went pretty much as expected

What are your general comments?

Overall I left UNECOM liking it more than I had expected to. The Facilities and students' tight knit atmosphere was very welcoming. After flying into boston, I rented a car and drove up here. I suggest that, although a little pricey, over the train because once you get to biddeford/saco you wont be able to really get around without a car.
