At the school

How did you prepare for the interview?

This website! Read school's website, and most importantly... bombarded my host with questions about the school.

What impressed you positively?

The students were awesome - friendly, open, willing to help and give their opinions of the school - their honest opinions.

What impressed you negatively?

Didn't really find anything that I didn't like

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How much those darn car rental places jack you around - the stated $112 price went up to $200 after taxes and fees and what not. What a rip off.

What are your general comments?

For anyone that has hesitations and or worries, the interview can and will clear up your questions. I liked the campus, I liked the people and the opportunities offered are as good if not better than their civilian counterparts. If you aren't afraid of the military this is a fantastic opportunity. MOST IMPORTANTLY- find a host!!!! I stayed with two, by luck, and both were very helpful in answering all of my questions.
