How did you prepare for the interview?

I read interview feedback and prepped for those Q.

What impressed you positively?

It was VERY open file. I felt like the interviewers were really prepared for my specific interview. They also seemed nice enough.

What impressed you negatively?

I wish I had gotten more time in the interview; I feel I would have been more comfortable if I had had more time to explain & warm up. I spent almost as many hours driving as my interview was minutes, that was kind of depressing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

not to drag my coat around--leave it in the lobby for the tour!

No responses

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Great job getting students for tours, Q&A, ect. I also felt very informed of deadlines, requirements, ect.
