The area surrounding the school.

What are your general comments?

Since I had previously visited the school during Winter Break, the first few hours of the morning were exactly like my previous visit. However, the students gave some valuable information about the school. After lunch, I was called into a conference room to interview with a woman from Professional Development and with the Dean of the College of Biosciences. Both were friendly and asked meaningful questions. The interview was relaxed and non-threatening.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
