How did you prepare for the interview?

Read about the school, SDN, reviewed my applications.

What impressed you positively?

Everyone there is so friendly and down to earth, not snobby at all. They want their students to succeed. A family-like feeling.

What impressed you negatively?

Not a thing really

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That there was no need for me to be so nervous about the interview. It was very laid back just like everyone told me. Be ready to ask them questions and it will take the heat off you. They will talk and talk.

What are your general comments?

It was a nice day. Breakfast with the faculty gives you a chance to calm down. The interviewers were friendly and laid back, not grilling you at all. I love this school and the area so much. I found out today that I was accepted, and I am definitely going to go there next fall!
