What impressed you positively?

practically everything. everyone was so friendly and welcoming (even the students interviewing with me). the school is beautiful and new. my student host was great. They let you know very fast (I got in!)their student host program is a lot of fun.

What impressed you negatively?

nothing at all. The only thing is the weather there (I'm from Florida) and the cost. Also, if you stay with a student, expect to arrive at 8am and have about 4 hours before you're required to check in with admissions. If I were them, I'd start the whole program earlier.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How laidback the interviews would be. Once you get an interview, your chances of getting in are pretty high, so the interviews are very conversational.

What are your general comments?

Overall, I was VERY impressed with everything. I had an interview with a faculty member first where he asked all the standard questions. My second interview was with a student and he repeated some questions from the first one. That interview didn't even last fifteen minutes. The whole experience was very stress-free and laidback. I had a very specific problem which required special accomodation and everyone there was more than willing to assist me in that regard. Overall, it was great.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
