How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

What impressed you positively?

Everyone I met at UNECOM was super nice. The entire day was very casual which can be scary for some people, but I really enjoyed it. The campus tour was done by second year students which was nice because they were able to tell us all about the intricacies of campus (which first year students may not know yet).

What impressed you negatively?

The interview itself was great, but I'm not sure how I feel about living in Biddeford, ME. Also, being right in the middle of an undergraduate campus might prove to be strange. Overall, however, it was a great experience.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known it was going to be so cold. I was a little nippy on the campus tour.

What are your general comments?

The whole interview was much more relaxed than what I anticipated. There were a few &quot;teams&quot; of interviewers - I happened to be with the &quot;team&quot; that consisted of two people. I had two people interviewing me at once while other interviewees had more one-on-one experiences.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
