How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read the SDN forums, read over my primary and secondary application, read school's website, attended mock interview at my home institution.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone was very friendly. Both interviewers said the reason they would pick U of L over other places is the comraderie of the student body/faculty. This is not a cut throat school, people like to help each other out.

What impressed you negatively?

The buildings are a little old, very 1970's concrete.

What are your general comments?

Very laid back school. Major props to the admissions director. When she spoke to us, she explained the whole process, what would happen from here, how to check our status, etc. She also reminded us we now had her personal e-mail and to contact her with any problems - she made a big effort to reach out to us. Said she didn't want us stressing out anymore than we already were! Also, other applicants were all very nice. We laughed and joked quite loudly while waiting to get started.
