✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read USF website, read application materials, asked a lot of questions during presentations before interview

What impressed you positively?

All the students and faculty seemed very positive. I asked about negative aspects and most students could find very few to complain about. Medical facilities are very impressive.

What impressed you negatively?

The classrooms and computer lab were not all that impressive looking; however, they were adequate. I guess I am a spoiled Emory undergrad.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The bagels disappear after the morning session, so eat up while you can.

What are your general comments?

The day was long, but the admissions staff did not leave a single question unanswered. I cannot count how many times we were asked for questions. Also, there are many presentations, but as the day wore on, Rel moved the process along more quickly. The students are awesome and really helped me gain perspective on the positive and negative aspects of the school. We were able to talk to at least 6 students throughout the day from every year. The interviews were very low stress and conversational. I felt like USF was more intersted in making sure the students are a good match for their school than to necessarily pick the most qualified students.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
