What impressed you positively?
The student body, very laid back..non-competitive ALWAYS offering to answer questions about schools..even if they werent a part of our interview group..just random students would offer their services..everyone seemed very friendly..The weather was really nice when i went around 80 degrees...sunny..clear skies
What impressed you negatively?
classes are held in the same room alll day...
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
based on a quarter system..so they compress alot of material in a 9-month academic calendar..probably due to the intense heat in phx.
What are your general comments?
Because this was my first interview.i was a little nervous at first..but the interviewers tried their best to make you feel as comfortable as possible
alot of downtime as others have stated..there was 18 interviewees total..i think only 4 girls..but they did say that usually the girl:guy ratio is approx equal. They also said that they would let interviewers know their decision in a couple of weeks. Overall the school is nice...but it seriously lacks a gym...no indoor bball courts (im a big bball fanatic)..so thats the only thing that really bugged me..
all of the lecture classes are held in one auditorium..which also kinda bothers me.i dont know if i can just sit there from 8-5...attendance is NOT mandatory..and there is no dress code..so thats always a plus
