The size and culture of the area.
What impressed you negatively?
I did not get to see the entire facility.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
There is lots a wait time between the individual interviews. There is some interaction with the current students during that time, but a lot of the time is spent in the waiting room alone.
What are your general comments?
The intimate atmosphere of the school is fantastic due to its small class size. I would definitely suggest looking for the interview building the night before the interview. Use a GPS to find the particular building because the addresses are not marked on the building.

Though our schedule became slightly different due to the circumstances, it would have been nice to see all the aspects of the college rather than just the basics.
