How did you prepare for the interview?

went to the website and took the virtual tour, went online and read about my interviewer, reviewed my application materials

What impressed you positively?

how much EVERY student I came across could not stop bragging about how much they love it there. I never thought I would want to live in the South, but the school is incredible.

What impressed you negatively?

the tour was pretty short, but not bad at all

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the interview is not a stressful experience at all. My interviewer was extremely nice and seemed interested in what I had to say.

What are your general comments?

Overall, the experience went much better than I expected. It was my very first interview and it couldn't have gone any better. The students, admissions staff, and even the dean are very friendly and helpful and couldn't be any happier. It was nice to come into that kind of an environment.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
