My Interviewers, the secretary, staff, and few students I came across were SOOOOO down to earth, very nice, and very helpful. Even though ppl complain about the library being small, it is, but the school has a lot of study spaces (rooms, cubicles etc.)in other places.

Well, the library is small but like I said there are many places NYCOM offers for studying (cubicles with cable internet connection) and the GYM is not really a gym (but they do have a nice discount for NYCOMers at a nearby gym).
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
How nice and down 2 earth the interviewers were. Both were very intelligent but so not intimidating.
