How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

I searched for common veterinary school interview questions, and I practiced my answers to those questions and thought about other questions that may be asked.

What impressed you positively?

All three of the people who interviewed me were friendly and polite. They did not make me feel like any of my answers were wrong or needed to be more thought out.

What impressed you negatively?

I honestly cannot think of anything that impressed me negatively during the interview process.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The only thing that I did not know ahead of time that would have been nice to know was how exactly we were to be informed if we received an offer or not. I figured out that it was through the online status check system, but it would have been nice to hear that from someone at the Welcome Reception.

What are your general comments?

I really enjoyed the entire interview process at LSU. The entire process impressed me and has made me consider LSU even more strongly than I was before the interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

I really enjoyed the interview experience I had at LSU. :)
