What impressed you positively?

The students, faculty, facilities, and programs are amazing

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really, I guess if I had to choose it would be that I had pay $10 for parking? lol

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How informal the interviews were. They really just try to see your personality and see if you can connect with them. The student panel was rough because if you have a gunner with you (as I did) they shadow over the other applicants.

What are your general comments?

There are two interviews. One faculty for 30 minutes and a student panel of 2 M2 students and 4 applicants. My faculty interview only lasted 15 minutes because he seemed in a hurry to get going and kept trying to wrap up the interview but other applicants went well over the 30 minutes. This school is truly amazing and they are definitely at the top of my list.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
