How did you prepare for the interview?

"I just checked out SDN and got a feel for what the expriences would be like.

This just helped lessen my anxiety level b/c I felt like I wasn't just depending on my sponaneity." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"The experience was much more pleasant than I anticipated (for my first interview). During my first interview (with a faculty member), I can't say that the interview was very "conversational"...he was just asking me questions, but none of them were very hard hitting. My second interviewer was a 4th year student, one of the same students that toured us around the building. She was very nice and easygoing. Actually, all of the student interviewers that I met that day were extremely nice. So, all in all, if you have an interview at ULSD, don't worry about it at all. I know now that I was nervous for no reason!" Report Response
