What impressed you positively?

How nice everyone was. Everyone there was genuinly interested in getting to know you as a person. The day was not rushed at all and it was a very comfortable and laid back environment.

What impressed you negatively?

NOTHING!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was well informed about everything that went on during the day. I would only suggest that ladies not wear heels that are too high because you are on your feet all day walking from room to room doing interviews and attending various sessions.

What are your general comments?

I loved the school overall! It is a top five school consistently. They are doing some renovations that will be completed in 2012. I would also encourage all interviewees to attend the student mixer the night before. It really helped to put me at ease before the interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
