How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

5 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read other SDN reviews; looked over my transcript, my application, and thought about what made tufts stand out to me. I also had an entire list of questions already prepared so I had plenty to ask them as they had about a 10 minute period where I could ask questions.

What impressed you positively?

The two interviewers were really nice and eased my nerves almost immediately by introducing themselves and then asking a nice simple question for me to answer. There weren’t any awkward pauses as whenever I finished speaking they had another question for me. They were very knowledgeable about the school and both taught courses throughout the program.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

No responses

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That they would focus more on me and who I am/ the actions I make rather than the experiences I have at work. They really seemed to want to know how I am with interacting with clients and how I am dealing with stress/ things going wrong.
