No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

I reviewed my application and talked to a current student.

What impressed you positively?

There are so many opportunities at this university.

What impressed you negatively?

Because the school is so large (and perhaps I was influenced because I had previously interviewed at a smaller school) I felt as though the atmosphere between the students and faculty is not very personal.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

N/A

What are your general comments?

It went very smoothly. The interviewers were both alumni and seemed interested in getting to know my personality. There were current students available to talk to in the lobbey and they all seemed to think very positively of the school. The admissions committee decides very quickly, too, which is nice; I was notified three days later that I got in!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
