this website, school website and reviewed my application

What impressed you positively?

THE PEOPLE ARE AWESOME- all the students realize what you're there for and they all wish you good luck in the halls- also, students just sort of stroll in and out of faculty offices and the faculty know all their names- everyone seems very at ease

What impressed you negatively?

the OMM lab is not a lab- it's on their basketball court on a tarp for now, but they are building a new lab and it should be opening shortly

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I thought it was great- everyone was so nice, including the interviewer- they are your advocate to the committee- so try to be as assertive as possible so they get to know you and remember you- any unusual (but relevant) experiences are a plus, the admissions director called me the day the committee met to let me know i got accepted, and to explain everything in my admissions packet

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
