What are your general comments?
Actually, there was a free shuttle from the airport to the school. The school didn't mention about it. Take the airport shuttle (free) to Train Station. Then, take SFEC/Tri-rail express shuttle (free) to NSU Health Center. Airport shuttle is 24/7. SFEC shuttle schedule can be found online at http://www.sfec.org/. Approximately they run 7am-7pm. Very convenient and cheap.
The interviewers weren't from admission committee. They just recommend you to the committee. The interview was short. Some applicants said the interview was very conversational. Some not. I guess it depends on the interviewers. Overall, not bad at all. It was short too.
The tour guides were very enthusiastic. They have great programs too to reduce debt. Good acceptance rate if you get interview.
