What impressed you positively?

The relaxed atmosphere of the interviews and the overwhelming enthusiasm for the school and the faculty that was exhibited by the students.

What impressed you negatively?

For me, nothing negative to report....though if you do not like the idea of living in a small rural town...the location may be tough to swallow.

That there was a football game at OSU on the same day and the freeways were clogged with people traveling down from Portland. Almost late to the interview.

Even thought the day was long, I honestly had a fantastic experience here.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Scheduling the panel interview late in the afternoon may make for a less than stellar performance from the candidate
