What are your general comments?

My interview experience was exceptional. The school seems to fit my personality very well. I was impressed with Dr. Kasberg, the faculty members that interviewed me and the students I met. The best thing about IUSD that I've unfortunately not encountered at other schools is that they are real people. They don't try to impress your with latest gadgets or new lab facility, but instead they tell you what the strengths and weaknesses are of their school and let you decide for yourself. A lot of schools are very unprofessional--put down their competitor so that you may pick them instead of the "other" school. IUSD is classy and first-rate!
