10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Looked up Case and compiled a list of reasons why I'd want to go to Case as opposed to other schools.

What impressed you positively?

Their curriculum which fosters an independent pursuit of the material.

What impressed you negatively?

Their lack of recording classes at all.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really.

What are your general comments?

Really really nice school. Very expensive though, but I believe they are worth it. Their interviewing style is VERY laid back...I wouldn't get worried about it at all. It's literally just a conversation.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

They could have started later on in the day. Out of the other 5 interviews I have had, none started at 8 am (instead at 10 or 11 am), giving us more than enough time to get a good nights sleep in unfamiliar beds.
