What impressed you positively?

The school itself was really nice. It almost looked like spa with all the interior decor. The facilities were nice and its in NYC which is the biggest draw for me. The dean was also really nice and kind of quirky. He was definitely the most memorable dean I've seen thus far (this was my 5th interview).

What impressed you negatively?

The size of the school and the fact that it gets even bigger when they bring in international students.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

You do the interview first, which I like so then you can relax. They also interview you in the order you arrive so keep that in mind.
