PBL just seemed like it would not be a good fit for me. Also in a live info session they asked us to tell them what rumors we had heard about them.

No responses

What are your general comments?

Overall, my stress for this interview was low because I knew I was only being evaluated on my 5 minute video and would have time to prepare my responses. I thought some of the rules were strange, but not something I couldn't live with. I was waitlisted but will be applying again.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

More clear instruction on AIS scoring and sending ACT score if you choose tho do that way. Also it took over 4 weeks for me to receive a decision and I just wish I had more communication. Whenever I emailed them they were very nice and responded quickly.
