What impressed you positively?

The school was beautiful, area was amazing, and staff was very friendly. Very good security.

What impressed you negatively?

The security is very tight (good and bad). You can only enter through the rear entrance. It's such a pretty building I would think they would want to show it off by having students coming and going through all entrances. Makes sense though since security is at the rear door.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That you can only enter through the rear entrance. It was raining the day of the interview and many students tried going in the front door and had to run to the back of the building in the rain. Would have been nice to be a little drier during the course of the day.

What are your general comments?

Absolutely amazing school. The interview is very well ran and laid back. The staff makes it very clear that PBL is for a specific type of student and it's very helpful to be able to sit in on a PBL session to gain first hand experience with the pathway.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Letting students know they need to enter in the rear of the building would have been nice.
