10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

I honestly didn't , just read up on the school a little

What impressed you positively?

The open honesty of the interviewers, how happy the students seemed, and how kind everyone was.

What impressed you negatively?

No responses

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was ten minutes early but 15 minutes out they called me and asked if I was still coming! SO definitely get here super early.

What are your general comments?

I honestly had little interest in this school and it was my "safety" but I left feeling like it was a strong contender for my possible school I attend! They were so kind, the tour really highlighted both good and bad aspects of the buildings, and the dean took time to talk to us about what they were improving or what they had struggled with. I felt like the school felt like a happy family.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

They could not have been any friendlier or kinder. I left feeling a strong connection to them and the school.
