Lack of dress code for students (half of them looked like they walked in off the street), no interaction w/ students.

What are your general comments?

Overall, not bad. I was grilled a little bit during my interview, which made me very nervous and caused me to stumble w/ some of my answers (but I was accepted so being grilled is not necessarily a bad thing). I'm from FL and this was my first visit to NYC. After visiting I realized that NYC wasn't for me. Nice facilities. Obed was very helpful and nice.
