What impressed you positively?
The students seemed to really like their campus, and there seems to be a lot of opportunities and flexibility in the 3rd and 4th years. There was positive feedback also on how much the faculty cares and gives individual attention to students who seek it.
What impressed you negatively?
Weekly Monday quizzes, an interim dean (which means that things could change for the worse), and how many wealthy people there were who didn't have to take out loans. Oh, and how many bad drivers there are in that area. Also, the student tour guides were scheduled right before my interview (I had the earliest one in my group). I should've just left the group early because my guide only gave me 5 min to find it, and I had to dash down the hall to be on time.
What are your general comments?
It positively influenced me, but I wish I had been a little better prepared for the questions they asked.
