How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN interview feedback, practiced in my hotel room...I had gone on many interviews previous to this one so it helped my confidence level.

What impressed you positively?

The campus is brand new. The program is very well-rounded and everyone is extremely nice and helpful. The buildings are open 24 hours and have great study rooms in them!

What impressed you negatively?

There was a typo on my paperwork that directed me to the wrong room for my interview. I was ten minutes late to my interview because I was looking for a room that did not exist on a completely different floor than everyone else was on. LOL!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing, I was well prepared.

What are your general comments?

This school was great! Everyone who was there for this interview loved the program. There is a writing portion, but its super easy. Remember the article, you will be asked about it in your interview. The group project was fun! Have questions prepared to ask current students and faculty. There are many opportunities throughout the day to talk to faculty and students!
