How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

3 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

The interview questions are standard for everyone. They read off of a worksheet pretty much, so prepare answers for these and you should be fine.

What impressed you positively?

No responses

What impressed you negatively?

We had no name tags, and neither did the interviewers. It's not that big of a negative, it would've been helpful though.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Who my interviewers were and what the interview schedule was. I don't get the point in not disclosing the interview schedule to the students.

What are your general comments?

You CANNOT put down a deposit both at Erie and Bradenton if you get accepted to both, even though they have different admissions offices and processes, apparently because they are the same name, you can't claim a seat at both locations.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
