How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN & mock interview

What impressed you positively?

Everybody was really nice and they really believe in Midwestern's mission.

What impressed you negatively?

The class size is really large (214) and classes are taken with students in other programs making lectures 400+ students. The campus is really small. I feel like commuting would be difficult. The cost of living is also much higher in the area than in other places in the midwest.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The essay question was like ethics questions I was asked in one-on-one interviews at other schools.

What are your general comments?

The school is very nice, it will be going under construction in the center of the academic buildings soon, and it is very small.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
