What impressed you positively?

Everyone that I met, students and faculty, were very helpful and supportive.

What impressed you negatively?

I saw Americans just hanging out with each other.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it is hard to find this university! I got lost, ended up at the wrong place...rent a car and go there the day before just to make sure you know where you are going. Puerto Ricans are not the best at giving directions, or maybe it was my Spanish?

What are your general comments?

Got there an hour late, missed the group interview but they were very forgiving. Made it in time for the individual interviews and got a tour of the campus. The interviewers (two) were very very nice and the tour guide was reaally cool. Good experience minus the stressful beginning.
