How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed my application. I don't know that reading other students' questions and thinking of the right answer is a good approach. I felt that the best part of my interview was my candidness and openness. I think honesty is the best approach. It worked for me at least.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The candidness and friendliness of the staff and interviewers during the day. I felt almost no stress and felt like I was just having a conversation with each person I talked to.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing about the school or interview, but I was really turned off by all the family members attending with the interviewees. It's one thing to have your fiance or spouse, but not your siblings and/or parents. That was horribly tacky and I'm sure didn't help the interviewees' chances.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How much walking I would do. I also wish I knew that everyone else would be bringing a portfolio or resume folder/binder. Luckily, I had just asked a family member who lives in Kirksville for a pen and paper and got a folder.
