What impressed you positively?

The new facilities are amazing!

What impressed you negatively?

They were still in the process of moving in so some things are unorganized. Phone lines seem to not be working when I tried to call before my interview.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing out of the ordinary.

What are your general comments?

I have to say, I drove over and there was a lot of construction going on on the highways so I got lost. I tried to call to get directions but the phone lines were not working which was annoying. I ended up showing up 5 minutes late. However it wasn't a big issue since the person interviewing me was late also. The school is very nice since it was just renovated and still in the process of being renovated. Some things seem a little disorganized but the kinks would be fixed once they finish moving into the new site.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
