SDN, website, thought of questions to ask

What impressed you positively?

super friendly staff and interviewers (both faculty and staff). I felt like everyone was very honest about the strengths and weaknesses of the school.

What impressed you negatively?

old facilities

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

taxi cab ride was so expensive, and I didn't need to be so nervous. Everyone was really nice.

What are your general comments?

I really liked the faculty and the staff of the school. I am not too sure about the location and the old facilities.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

I really liked that they gave us a choice with short interview day or weekend interviews. I chose the short interview day and it worked to my advantage, because I do get tired of really long days at a school.
