No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Did all the mock interview questions on the website. Had 3 mock interviews with a mock panel. Read a book published by the fomer dean. Got a good suit.

What impressed you positively?

Moscow is a nice town. Students were very friendly.

What impressed you negatively?

Pullman has very soft water. Ew. The Pizza mixer was too crowded, not enough pizza, hard to tell who was an applicant and who was a student.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing. But our plane was delayed 3.5 hours on the way back. So bring a lunch/snack with you to the airport.

What are your general comments?

Interviewers were very nice, made a good effort to get to know me. It was more like a conversation than an interview, after they had gotten the ethical/technical questions out of the way.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
