What are your general comments?
The admissions staff are very nice, helpful, and overall I feel that they give pretty good advice. Obviously they are trying to sell their school, just like anywhere, but I definitely appreciate how honest they are about the process, risks, and advice for prospective students. I didn't feel I was being tricked into attending, but rather that this was simply a way to reach my goal when other methods have failed.
