What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

"To have something to keep you occupied when waiting for your interview or SIMs center activity. Our phones are taken away and there is little to do in the interview room (and there is not necessarily someone else in the room with you). Having the opportunity to watch a lecture (live or online) or see an dissection (again either live or on video) would be nice. Just sometime to pass the time." Report Response
