SDN

What impressed you positively?

How supportive and friendly the staff are.

What impressed you negatively?

How rushed the interview was. I was only given 15 minutes with each interviewer. The interview was on Zoom bc of COVID so maybe it would be different in person.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How relaxed the interview was going to go. It's really nothing to stress over.

What are your general comments?

Marquette seems like an excellent school, aside from the location. The interview was very laid back. They want you to feel comfortable. Be prepared for some tell me about yourself questions and some ethical questions. Just be yourself and you will do great!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Please allow for more than 30 minutes for an interview. The interview felt very rushed. I would've liked to have more time with the faculty and staff.
