How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN

What impressed you positively?

The facilities. The staff. The students.

What impressed you negatively?

Dean Martin is a "my way or the high way" kind of administrator. He's willing to listen to requests, but if your break a rule/policy... Also, the financial aid situation. It's one thing to be able to offer private loans. It's another thing to ask for about $38K in tuition, unsubsudized, at 8-10% interest. Maybe if tuition was lower ($25k, for example) it wouldn't be so prohibitive.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I knew what I was going into.

What are your general comments?

In 4 years, if the schol can get Title IV loans, this will be a great place to go to school. Right now, it's a financial risk that I would only take if I didn't have other options.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

The whole staff did a great job. Every question was answered by end of day.
