What impressed you positively?
The block scheduling is arranged so students have the afternoons off for studying or *gasp* a life. The facilites are really nice and brand new. All of the students seemed really happy and relatively non-stressed.
What impressed you negatively?
The campus seemed to be on a relatively nice area, but Baltimore is not the kind of city that you go wandering around in late at night. The areas surrounding the campus are a little more questionable.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
There are four potential interview time slots and only two interviews. This means you may be sitting around all morning, so if you're the kind of person who can work yourself up into a nervous state, bring a distractor. Also, they do not serve you breakfast, so either eat ahead of time or hope you have an open slot in the morning.
What are your general comments?
It was a very low pressure interview. The questions were what I expected (with the exception of the God question....but it was asked more because of my background). The tour has you walking a lot, so definitely comfortable shoes. They feed you lunch, but not breakfast, so eat beforehand.
