What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Do you have any questions for me about NYU?
What was the most interesting question?
Nothing really - I don't think i was asked a single question! The interviewer basically just talked with me about the school - it was more of an info session than an interview. Very low stress...a little too laid back.
What was the most difficult question?
Nothing special - I honestly don't think i was asked ANYTHING, except if I had any questions about the place.

How did you prepare for the interview?
Read the website, looked at the viewbook, the usual stuff.
What impressed you positively?
Really excited student body, some nice parts of the facility, bellevue seemed like a great opportunity. Also, I liked how you had bellevue (public) and tisch (private) all in the same place...so you get both types of experiences.
What impressed you negatively?
HORRIBLE DORMS. THE WORST. At our age, the dorm situation was ridiculous, dirty, and very small. Also, some of the facilities were really run down. I imagined myself being put to sleep in those lecture halls.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Nothing really that I didn't expect.
What are your general comments?
For the money, I really felt that NYU was a big rip off. Bad dorms, some not so great facilities, and the fact that some students hadn't gone outside in 5 days because everything is so well connected. Sure, it's manhattan, but I was kind of disappointed with the atmosphere there.
As for the interview, it went great except for the fact that we just talked about NYU and not about my application at all. I just didn't think that I got a chance to show who I was.
