What impressed you positively?
The school is small and on the tour the students gave such a positive family feel to the program. That everyone was here to help you succeed not fail and the students work as a family not in competition! Professors seem very close with students as well!
What impressed you negatively?
People say the area is bad but I don't feel that way. I originally grew up in NYC so it felt like home. I would say the facility looks old but the rooms actually have high tech equipment!

That I-95 is like a parking lot! The interview was relaxed but I had to drive 2 1/2 hrs to get there and set aside an extra hour but still was almost late. lots of traffic that early in the morning!
