How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN! I listened to NPR, read articles, and practiced interviewing.

What impressed you positively?

How awesome it was.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interview invite listed my interview time.... and the actual start time of the interview day later in the body of the invite. I was almost LATE!

What are your general comments?

This is a great program. Best interview day of the season.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

None really. The only hard part was that the interview week (I am from a satellite WWAMI state) was really late in the season. Kind of tough knowing I might have to loose out on my deposit at other schools but it will be worth it if I get in to UW!
