I was underimpressed --plus they kept saying how they didn't have money for anything (like soda or a technician) and tuition is increasing 20% for the next 5 years! (each year I believe)

What impressed you positively?

The interviewers were very nice.

What impressed you negatively?

The school did a poor job of representing itself. They had no sodas or snacks, a lot of waiting time, lunch was poor quality, the TV they showed a small video on was literally about 10inches wide for all of us to view, and one of the tour guides spent his time flirting with an interviewee instead of providing useful info. Speaking of the tour--we couldn't even get inside the any of the labs or lecture halls because they were in use--poor planning all around.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There are 2 interviews, one with 2 people (limited file), and another with one person (open file).
