How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, website, asked UOP alumni

What impressed you positively?

Top facilities, cheap rent on campus, very green - lotsa trees in the area, cheap parking fees, 3 year program

What impressed you negatively?

The mall beside the campus sucks. Area around the campus is a little scary and the town overall just felt sad and unfriendly. Almost all the students were Chinese or from some other Asian descent. A little more diversity would have been nice.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That they start way before the 12:30 check in time. I got there at 12:30 and the Dean was already talking.

What are your general comments?

Relaxed interview. It was quick and easy. They have monitors that gets assigned to every 2 students so you can talk to them and ask questions about the school while you wait for your next scheduled event.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
