No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read my application, reviewed the website.

What impressed you positively?

Their effort to recruit their applicants. It was a long day, but they really put on a show with the dinner.

What impressed you negatively?

The large animal facilities.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How bad the traffic would be in town getting back to the Union for the dinner.

What are your general comments?

It was a long day - everybody had to be there at 7 for check-in because they won't tell you when your interview is prior to that day. The interview itself was pretty chill, their questions seemed very reasonable. Go to the dinner - it's a great way to met more students and faculty, as well as potential classmates.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
