How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Bought a few interview prep books, reviewed SDN, wrote out outlines to my answers, practiced saying the answers out-loud, etc

What impressed you positively?

Almost everything!! Loved how much of a family atmosphere the school had. Seems like a really close-knit community. Loved how dedicated they are to serving the underserved. The library is also pretty beautiful! Wouldn't mind spending daysss there in the future. Board pass rate is also very impressive!! Around 95% I think. Lunch with the students was pretty informative and amazing as well.

What impressed you negatively?

I just wish I was able to see more of the inside of the campus buildings, like the cafeteria, etc. The lack of institutional aid and the average student debt is also pretttyyy scary. The longer class days may not be for me as well....

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Not to be so stressed omg my interviewer was CHILLLL.

What are your general comments?

Pretty awesome day and overall, I was very impressed.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

A longer tour that allows to see more of the inside of the other buildings would be nice.
