After checking in, there is a welcome by a staff member. Then most of the group goes for interviews, while some go for the writing exercise or tour. Interviewer was totally nice, it felt like I was talking with a family friend. After interview there was a 30 minute writing exercise in the comp. lab followed by a tour and student panel. About 3 hours long
