Very small town. But I'm from a big city so it's just a culture shock to me.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That if the weather is really bad, they're going to close the school...

What are your general comments?

I got there about 10 minutes early and basically went right into the Q&A. Both the faculty member and student that interviewed me were extremely nice and that made for a comfortable setting. They ask a lot of ethical questions and make sure that you have some questions to ask them. After the interview I had 30 minutes to write my essay while they interviewed another student. You have a choice between 2 questions that are similarly related. It was plenty of time to finish so there was no pressure. Overall, I felt very good after the interview and got my acceptance 4 days later!
