What impressed you positively?

Location, Location, Location. Curriculum, friendliness of the staff, the mentor program, and the student lounges. Also, the different programs of study. And of course, Bellevue.

What impressed you negatively?

The dorms, obviously. Current students will tell you they aren't terrible, and they're really not, especially if you consider you're living at 30th st for $600/month. But they are not in any way impressive.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I had heard that most of the interviews are conversational. Happened to be that mine wasn't particularly conversational, but it wasn't rapid-fire-out-to-get-you style either... I lived to tell the tale.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
