How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Looked at the web site, looked over my applications, and practiced answering the common interview questions.

What impressed you positively?

They take good care of the interviewees and make you feel like you are really wanted there. It seems as if they go to great lengths to make you comfortable.

What impressed you negatively?

The room they put me up in was drab. But considering that they are not required to give us a place to stay, it was pretty good.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I would be finished in time to make it to the airport for a 5:00 p.m. flight. I ended up getting a flight for the next morning. Take the metro, it doesn't cost much and you get there in 30 minutes.

What are your general comments?

It was a great first interview experience. They don't put you under any stress, and it seems to me that they try to pair you up with an interviewer with a similar background. Go to the pizza party and the breakfast.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
