How did you prepare for the interview?

Read about the school, ate a Philly cheesesteak

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The school is nice, the curricula is interesting, and housing is relatively cheap in the area. I think I would be happy going to school there.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

My interviewer was very cold and accused me of being intolerant simply because I'm from a rural area. The second thing she said to me was how intolerant people from western PA are, which is not true. Then she made the comment that there are not many cows in Philadelphia, which I found to be incredibly rude. I don't know about her, but at least I have manners, even being the hick that I am.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That my interview would not be relaxed and conversational like everyone else's, and that I would have to defend myself againt being accused of being intolerant of other cultures.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

I enjoyed the school, and my student interviewer was great. However, my faculty interview was terrible. She made a pre-judgment about me based on where I grew up, and I know that I don't have a chance of getting in because of it. She was very insulting and condescending to me throughout the entire interview.
