How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, Mock interview with friends, read through my application and personal statement. Review the school website.

What impressed you positively?

Dr. Ayers is great! He makes you feel very comfortable and the stress level is very low. The tour was also great, the school has updated facilities as well as a nice location. The entire staff is very friendly. All the students I met were also very nice and helpful as well as honest. They all seemed to love Crieghton and were glad they decided to go there.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing that I can think of ...

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

If you are the first person to sign in your interview will be first. I advise not to be the first one because if your interview is a little later then the others, than you can have a tour before your interview and that can be helpful. I was the first one there so I did not get to tour before my interview but others who came after me went on their tour first and then had their interview. Ofcourse this does not mean you should go late, be on time but try not to be the first one to sign in :)

What are your general comments?

Good Luck!
