What are your general comments?

I was interviewed by a PhD and a person in admissions. Standard interview questions. The students seem to really like the school and are genuinely satisfied with the education they are receiving. All students were honest about the admissions process and about the school, which was nice to hear. The day included a short financial aid presentation, tour and lunch with the students.
