What impressed you negatively?

"It is true that there isn't much to do in Toledo (i've lived here my whole life), but how much time will you really have anyway? There are all the typical places and things to do (bars, nice Metroparks, a great art museum, etc.) to keep you occupied. " Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"How low-stress the interviews would be. I really found them to be conversations between colleagues rather than them grilling me about why I should be accepted. Also, the interviewers only received my file at the beginning of the interview, with my 2nd interviewer not even looking over it at all." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Overall, the entire experience was great. The campus is very nice, it is in my home town, and it has a good reputation.

If I am accepted, I certainly plan on attending." Report Response
