What impressed you positively?

I like the facilities and the campus in general.

What impressed you negatively?

about 100 people at the interview and some people did not have their packets ready when they got there. It would be pretty depressing for me to travel across the country to find they don't even remember I'm coming by having my stuff ready. Just seemed a bit unorganized.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That they served breakfast so I could have slept in more.

What are your general comments?

The campus is nice but the town is sketchy.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
