SDN

What impressed you positively?

The admission staff and the interviewer was really nice! They made you feel welcome and the interview was more like a conversation than interrogation. The interview day was very structured and organzied.

None

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

None, everything was expected.

What are your general comments?

A financial aid session and a Q&A session given by current students will be nice.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

The only thing I would add to make the interview day more thorough will be to include a financial aid session and then a Q&A session with current students. This way, the applicant will have a feel of the school from a student's perspective and also know more about the financial aid situation for the program. Other than that, I think the interview was very organized and efficient.
