Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The students seem to like eachother and are able to go out and have a good time. The night before my interview, a group of students took me out for "Quizzo" at Fergie's and later to McGillan's for several pitchers. It was a lot fun, although I was a bit groggy in the AM.

What impressed you negatively?

It was 20 degrees and snowing the whole time I was there...that's the NorthEast in January. Really can't think of any complaints about the school.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

During lunch several admissions officials come in to talk to while we were eating. I had taken my suit coat off to eat and was worried I looked a little too casual. I didn't think the admissions reps were going to come while we were eating.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

When I first got there we sat in a big conference room for lunch and numerous speakers which became dull. The student interview was not stressful and then comes the tour. I was fortunate to have an upbeat, energetic tour guide and really enjoyed my tour. The faculty interviewer and I had a good rapport so I rather enjoyed my interview, which was much more like a conversation than interview. Center City is a neat place to live and students & faculty are all friendly. Great interview experience.
