What impressed you positively?

The interviewer was a great person. We talked about everything from academics to research to music. The time flew by.

What impressed you negatively?

The notice given before my interview date - Plane tickets were too expensive so I drove 8 hours to the school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Which parking garage to park at for free (even though it ended up being free anyway when it wasnt supposed to).

What are your general comments?

The visit was nice, even though I didn't have much time to tour the campus like I wanted to. There is alot of construction going on all over the campus, which may look bad, but that only means that the school is headed for bigger things. My undergraduate school is/was the same way so I'm used to it.
