How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Sadly...I didn't do anything. But that wasn't a bad thing. They tell you lots about the school, so there's plenty to ask about. And I knew my application well.

What impressed you positively?

The amount of community service and ethics that are integrated into UConn's curriculum. Also, how happy the students are.

What impressed you negatively?

Honestly? Nothing. It's a really great place.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known about that Q/A session. Here's something helpful: If you have part of your interview at the Exchange (like someone in my group did), call x2143 for a shuttle. ALSO....eat breakfast. You won't eat till 1:30pm....I got hungry during my second interview

What are your general comments?

It started out with an information session about UConn..then the student interview (or faculty...but usually student)...then the faculty interview...then lunch and a tour with students...then a PBL session...then an exit interview with Dr. Sanford. It was a great experience. UConn's a very caring place!
