How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock interviews, researched the school.

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are amazing, the staff was inviting and down to earth. It was a great experience.

What impressed you negatively?

One of my interviewers was a tab bit sexist during my interview. I don't think he was trying to be though, it just came off to me that way. Be prepared for experiences like these that will turn you off during your interview. Always stay positive and smiling :).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How long the tour was going to be. Wear comfortable shoes! Make sure to also eat breakfast. Find parking ahead of time.

What are your general comments?

Loved the interview, school, staff!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Keep up the great work. The staff replied to my emails within minutes. Mr. Rosso's enthusiasm on interview day was contagious. :) Thank you.
