What impressed you positively?
I loved this school! The student tour guides (there were four of them) were really nice and seemed genuinely happy there. When our tour group passed groups of students, they would yell ''yay einstein, come here!'' I thought the facilities got a bad rap in this forum, I was quite impressed with what we saw on the tour, especially the lecture halls. Great international oputunities, lots of good research, and a lot of emphasis on helping the immigrant populations in the Bronx are just a few of the other things that impressed me. Overall, just a really great school I thought!
What impressed you negatively?
Library isn't open on Saturdays (sabbath).
What are your general comments?
The only slightly stressful thing was having to catch shuttles to get to my interviews, but the admissions office was really helpful and made sure I knew where I was going. I even had to call them when one of my interviewers was running late and I knew I would miss the shuttle, and they were so nice! Also, make appointments to meet with Noreen and with a researcher if you have an interest in doing research. I found both of these meetings to be really insightful.
