What impressed you positively?

The friendliness of people and the interviewers. Also, the dean will speak to you after the interview to make you sure you have all your pre-requsites completed.

What impressed you negatively?

The freshmen classroom seemed very cramped. It is very small and the seats are not comfortable.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It was cold and windy there. Check the weather before you go.

What are your general comments?

You meet in a room along with your fellow intervieews. There are food and drinks for everyone. Five minutes before the interviews you have to go out to the hallway and wait for one of your interviewers come and take you to the room. The interview is very laid-back. The interviewers were in casual attire which was little bit surprising. The interview was mostly conversational.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
