How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, Georgetown's web site. Listened to Mrs Sullivan's speech (this might have been enough even if I did nothing else)

What impressed you positively?

Just about everything. I have literally never seen a school that bases everything that they do on a single (pretty amazing) philosophy. They are SO into helping the students develop great technique early on. LOTS of patient contact almost from the moment you step onto campus. Also, the AI program is genius. Great location. Mrs Sullivan's speech.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities weren't amazing. Everything is in the basement

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That Georgetown is so great I want to cry

What are your general comments?

It was an extremely calm and interesting interview. The interviewer asked me some easy and some sort of tricky questions. He gave me feedback about my responses (which is SO rare in this process) and he gave me totally honest answers to the questions I asked him.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Keep it up. You are awesome
