What are your general comments?

Honestly I was not that impressed with this school. The facilities are really nice but the people there were not as "gung ho" about the school. Some of the students seemed to love it, but most either didn't express an opinion or were very brief about their feelings. My second interviewer told me that if I got in a state school and U of R that I should go to a state school to save money because even though U of R is a good school, it might not be worth the debt. That was a real eye opener.
