How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, Dr. Haight.

What impressed you positively?

School location, buildings, and esp students.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

how close it is to Cal, otherwise i would not have been waiting in the parking lot for an hour.

What are your general comments?

This school is going to be a forerunner for sure. Dr. Haight told us to be wary of SDN - someone earlier had posted that there is no point applying here since they ration their seats ... obviously this person has no idea what they are talking about. Rationing seats is awesome because everyone has a chance of getting in and they do not interview for just waitlists. Just be confident and do not stress - the interview style is clearly to test your confidence and stress level. Don't babble and make sure you listen - they are always watching you.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

None, Dr. Haight was remarkable. Don't let him retire!
