How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, their website

What impressed you positively?

AMAZINGLY facilities, friendly students, lots of opportunities to interact with 1st-4th year students. Also kept well fed!

What impressed you negatively?

The dorms, if anything. They weren't awful, but could probably use an update.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The metro link only gives change back in coin form! That's a LOT of coins for a 20. Bring some 1s or a 5 and some change as well.

What are your general comments?

Some students will have 2 interviews because WashU does internal reviews to make sure interviews are fair and accurate. It doesn't mean anything either way so don't sweat it!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
