What impressed you positively?

The people: faculty, students and staff. The two 1st year students who took us on the tour were really informative and helpful. A 4th year student stopped us to talk about the school. The Dean of Admissions spent time with us too.

What impressed you negatively?

I suppose the campus is a bit compact but it's an actual campus and the buildings and facilities (cafeteria & etc) are nice.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How easy it is to establish NJ residency and thus qualify for in-state tuition.

What are your general comments?

I really liked the school's curriculum and people, for ex. the diversity of students. The school is very human: the Admissions Office called me on 10/20 (the day the Admissions Committee met) to tell me that I'd been accepted. (I don't know what - if any - other schools do that.) The academic calendar has "exam block" weeks (similar to finals periods in college) so you can focus on studying and taking tests.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
