What impressed you positively?

The friendliness of everyone involved in the interview day. They really went out of their way to make you feel welcome and comfortable.

What impressed you negatively?

It isn't really a negative impression just something negative to expect, the day is long and you have to drive between College Station and Temple so just prepare for a LONG day and lots of walking and moving around.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Pay parking details. Get there in plenty of time to figure out the machine to pay for your parking. I didn't and decided the interview was more important, so I got stuck with a campus parking ticket ($30).

What are your general comments?

Overall, it was a great experience. As I was walking out someone pointed out that despite the long day you didn't leave thinking about that, you left being impressed with the school and that is very true. ATM has an impressive program and its worth being tired!
