What are your general comments?

"The presentations were informative and entertaining. The students had only good things to say about the faculty members. The facilities were REALLY state of the art. I read about it but didn't know what that meant until I actually witnessed it. Both my interviewers were very nice and understanding. I actually enjoyed my interviews because I got to know each of them as a person and the school better. People complain about the area, but I think it's good to have the strip nearby for events such as weekend dinners with the significant other or friend. It rained when I went. I love the rain, so it made the experience even more enjoyable." Report Response
