The facilities. Very, very nice. Also, students seemed to genuinely feel well taken care of by the administration. No air of competitiveness.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
If you stay at Olin for just one night you have to check out in the early morning before the interview day begins. This means that you can't go back to your room during all the hour-long breaks that you get between things.
