What are your general comments?
The day started at 8:30 am and ended at 4:00 pm. We began by receiving information from the admissions officers and financial aid advisors. We then went on a tour of the facilities and the city. I was impressed that they gave us food for lunch rather than a voucher. Once all of that was over, we began our interviews with various faculty and administrative officers. I was relieved at the end of the interview because it was over, but I did not feel worn out or anything. It was a smooth, organized experience.
