No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Did practice questions with boyfriend. Mock interviews with someone in the HR field (friend) and a DACVECC I work with, both of which were harder than the real thing. Made lists of my positive qualities, weaknesses, etc and wrote down stories for each as examples. Studied current events--Time's Year in Review; nightly news; etc.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities were a bit older but very well-kept. The faculty was EXTREMELY friendly and accessible, and the students were very loyal/excited about their educational experience. There was a great sense of comaraderie about the place.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I didn't need to be so heavily prepared, but it helped my confidence level.

What are your general comments?

I had a great time and can't wait to start there this fall. Overall, it was the least stressful experience possible. They really made us feel welcome.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
