What are your general comments?

"Everyone arrived at 8:00 and we spoke with the current students for a while and then were led into a room to see a powerpoint presentation on school facts and financial aid, and the Dean spoke to us. We each had a packet telling us what time we were to go on the tour and what time our interview was (and it listed our interviewers names). My interview was about an hour later than what it was stated to be. They did offer breakfast (danishs, bagels) and lunch and we were free to leave after our interview was over" Report Response
