What impressed you positively?

The interviewers were extremely chill. This was a virtual interview, so I was not able to see the school. There was a virtual Q&A session with current students the night before, which was very nice. According to the students, the administration is very receptive to student feedback. Many opportunities to work with underserved Hispanic communities. The admissions office was very friendly and hopped onto all of the calls to make sure that there were no technology issues.
