How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Watched the dvd they sent me, SDN, PM'd students of the school.

What impressed you positively?

I personally love the small campus as it seems real intimate. Not intimidating at all. I also loved how the faculty is so committed to the school and how the student panel loved the school. No regrets from anyone.

What impressed you negatively?

The freakin weather! I mean come on, mid-Oct and it's in the 30's during the day time! I also heard the food on campus was nasty and from the looks of it, I think I'll eat off campus (or bring my own food)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How cold it was during Fall. I always thought it didn't get cold until Nov/Dec but it was freezing in Oct. But I'm a CA person.

What are your general comments?

Sat in a room for a few hours, had the dean come in and speak to us. Then split into 3 break out sessions with ~12 in each group. Went around the table to introduce ourselves and give a unique fact, then asked all the questions we had. Ended with financial aid and student panel for more questions. Took an optional tour.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
