How did you prepare for the interview?

Got a good night's sleep...I didn't really practice so my answers wouldn't seem rehearsed; I wanted my responses to seem more natural.

What impressed you positively?

Interviews were low-key and very relaxed; more like a conversation rather than a straight interview, particularly with the student and alumni.

What impressed you negatively?

While I was familiar with the school and area, the students rushed through the tour and didn't seem to have a lot of information to provide.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The fact that interviewers would allow time for me to ask them questions.

What are your general comments?

It was a very positive experience and the staff and students were all extremely friendly. It was also nice to have time in between sessions to socialize with the other applicants.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
