What are your general comments?
It was very good experience and I hope that if I get any more interviews that they are all as good of an experience. I would reccomend the Holiday Inn Express, Plantation, its pretty reasonable price wise, and its clean and very centrally located. Its been a good trip and it was a very nice interview.

What impressed you positively?
The campus, the people we met assocaited with the program (Staff, Faculty, Students), and the facilities for the students. The attitude of the interviews was very light, one said '' we are your voice to the adcom, so be honest and let us present you as best as we can to them''
What impressed you negatively?
The only thing that I would even consider 'negative' would be adjusting to living in FL from IA/NE. But thats not totally negative, just an adjustment.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Not much I felt prepared and read a lot of hotel reviews. Tip if you rent a car, rent from Enterprise, got an upgrade for free just for asking for the mustang, and paid for the focus. Good deal there.
