What are your general comments?
Just like all the other reviews on this site. The assistant dean came in to speak to us (the dean was on vacation), admissions spoke, then we did our essays. We then had a breakout session with smaller groups with a faculty member. Then met with financial aid, student services, and a final question session with admissions. I skipped the tour because I did the virtual one on their website, and the campus is small anyways.
