How did you prepare for the interview?

Read a lot about the school online, made up a list of questions I wanted to ask at the interview, reviewed my personal statement, gave myself a positive pep-talk.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone I met was extremely friendly. The students I talked to really seemed to like the program a lot.

What impressed you negatively?

The campus is under heavy construction. Nowhere visible from the car to eat around campus. Baltimore has terrible crime statistics (the campus area is not super-scary though).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Candy bars from a gas station do not make a good lunch.

What are your general comments?

There was an interview with a faculty member, an interview with a student, a group interview/Q&A session, a campus tour, and an essay. The one-on-one interviews were about 20-25 min and the group was about (?)35-40 min. I swear we were given about 5 minutes to write the essay.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
