Where did the interview take place?

At the school

How did you prepare for the interview?

read over my app, read this website, that's about it

What impressed you positively?

how ridiculously friendly the students were, how laid back the interview process is

What impressed you negatively?

I drove around the area surrounding the school the night before--it was absolutely desolate. Not dangerous or anything, but just completely devoid of activity/signs of life. The school itself presented itself soooo well, but I don't know if I could live in such a boring place for four years.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It's sooooooo laid back. Don't stress!!!! San Antonio's process is not at all antagonistic--very low stress. This was my first interview and it was a great chance to "practice" my interviewing.

What are your general comments?

The people is what makes this school stand out. The buildings itself are not very impressive, and the school doesn't exactly stand out nationally, but I think that the friendly atmosphere could quite possibly overshadow all of that.
