How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

8 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read my application, that was about it.

What impressed you positively?

The students there seem to be genuinely happy there, they were very friendly as we took the tour. I also talked in depth after the interviews were over with one of the students and even though it's rigorous, it's a great place to be. Also, the new facilities are incredible, and while there is some finishing up to do, by the time i would be getting in there everything would be up and running.

What impressed you negatively?

Tuition, tuition, tuition. They pulled no punches and made no apologies about how expensive their school was. They recommended selling cars, never going out to lunch, and basically anything to cut costs. Basically they stressed that you will be dirt poor the whole time you're there. They are more expensive than most private schools in the long run with no chance to change residency status.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really.

What are your general comments?

Other than tuition, this is an excellent program, since I am considering a military scholarship the cost isn't such an issue.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

The presentations were pretty long, 3 hours straight of presentations. It would have been nice to do the first one, take a tour, then finish up and go to lunch.
