What impressed you positively?

The dean was very personable. They stress how OSU is a family. Lots of opportunity for involvement. The interview was relaxed (or as relaxed as it could be!)

While one building was brand new, the rest were older (not as nice). How many people they interview for OOS spots.

How many other people would be there that day (40 people).

What are your general comments?

Wear a nice suit. One would think that this would not have to be said, but I was surprised that some others were dressed rather unprofessionally.
