It is in a small town and I was not used to that.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That 150 people are interviewed for 52 spots. I think I would have tried to prepare more but this was my first interview and I was pretty nervous.

What are your general comments?

A group of about 16 of us were in a room and we were brought to a conference room in which we Maria told us a bit about the school, and its history. The dean welcomed us and encrouged us to apply next year in case we did not get in this year, funny I remember that. Then we took a tour of the building. Came back took a math test full of story problems, no calculus involved like I had expected, went on a campus tour, then came back to the conference room and had pizzs with the students and had our questions answered. Then we were given our interview times according to how far away from Wyoming we were. Closer people interviewed later. After that we were free to do what we wanted until our interview time.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
