What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"nothing was a real big surprise..everything was standard and meant to just make us comfortable and inform us in the right way...what a great way to attract people to your school! p.s. I would come extra early or get a really good map of the TMC so as to not get lost which I did!" Report Response

What are your general comments?

"I had an absolutely wonderful experience..this was my #1 choice and the interview just confirmed it..everyhting from the presentations, students, interviews, tours were really laidback and aimed at informing and getting to know each other rather than grilling or boring! I went in to this interview with less prep than I had gone in to with any other interview and didn't think I performed any less if not better! Just one note: send in your official transcripts to BCM if you are interviewing!!! I did not know this and it's quite imp.!!!" Report Response
