What impressed you positively?

Faculty and staff walking by in the halls all greeted me. The whole school gave off the feel of having a very warm and inviting atmosphere.

What impressed you negatively?

The tour was a little hurried and there wasn't a chance to interact with current students aside from during the tour with the tour guide. It would've been nice to have a chance to have lunch with a current student and just talk with no other competing things to be done.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The class is almost full and may well be by the time my app goes to committee (in ~4 weeks they say). This means waitlist at best. The school's educational goals are much in line with my goals. I didn't realize they would be such a good fit.

What are your general comments?

Very laid back. Interviewer was very warm and welcoming.
