"Overall I enjoyed the interview day a lot, it was stressful since it was my first interview and the first of the 3 20-minute interviews was with a strange man who just asked me about my family.

I really liked the school a lot and would likely attend if I had not gotten accepted somewhere closer to home." Report Response
