What are your general comments?

We were a group of about 30 people, all seated in a big lecture hall. First, we did a 30-minute writing exercise. They give you two sheets of paper on which to write it. Then, the Dean came to speak with us about the history of Midwestern, and what would happen to our application. A PS-4 student came out and was available for questions. Afterward, we were split into 3 groups of 'breakout sessions', where we were lead by a faculty member in something like a Q&A session. We all introduced ourselves and asked questions. When that was over, a few speakers from Student Services and Financial Services gave talks on residential life and financial aid. Finally, we wrapped up the session with an optional campus tour led by a PS-3.
💬 Interview Process

What impressed you positively?

The school is really nice, and the faculty is really there to help you along your way. They encourage group work and joining student organizations.

What impressed you negatively?

It was scheduled the Monday after the Thanksgiving holiday, and being that I lived far enough away that I had to fly there, plane fares were outrageous.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I should have eaten breakfast right before I arrived.
