How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, asking current students at school

What impressed you positively?

- The admissions staff was very friendly

What impressed you negatively?

- Tour guides: I feel the admissions staff should really work on trying to recruit more enthusiastic/passionate tour guides. - The idea that the 4th year students were much happier than the 2nd/1st year students didn't seem right - There was a fellow interviewee who was insecure, but acting arrogantly that was not helping
