What are your general comments?

"I arrived at 8:45 and was called into my first interview at 9:00 am. My second interview was at 10:00 am at another part of the campus. Both of my interviewers were incredibly cool and easy to talk to. So easy in fact, that I used up the whole hour in both interviews. The second interviewer was a little more adamantabout sticking to her list of basic questions, but after awhile she softened up and we began talking about her department. At 11:00 am we had the financial aid presentation. At 11:45 the dean of admissions sat and chatted with the group (9 total) for about 15 minutes. We ate lunch and talked to about 8 or 9 students and then there was a tour. Some of the group had afternoon interviews, but my day was done after that. I really enjoyed coming back to my home town for this interview. I hope they decide to accept me!!" Report Response
