SDN and practiced with friends and family.

What impressed you positively?

Brand new facility; the interview process was structured ok.

What impressed you negatively?

There was a lot of down time. I also got the impression they were trying to move interviewees through as quickly as possible. It seemed they were starting to get burned out on the process.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The faculty offices are in an entirely different building than the education buildings (they are somewhat far away. I knew the location of the new campus was in a 'bad' part of Denver but I didn't realize to what extend.

What are your general comments?

Overall I had a favorable impression of the facilities and faculty. It did seem to me that the faculty was getting a little burned out on interviewing (I believe I was in one of the last interview groups). The students spoke very favorably about the new facilities and seemed to engage with the faculty in a positive way.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
