"The location, the current graduate students, the quality of work being produced, the apparent absence of stress among faculty and students, their openness to discussing weaknesses (though there aren't many and most don't even apply to me), their 100% match rate over the past seven or so years, etc."

"Make sure you get to know the grad students!!! They are a very important part of the process at ASU."
"awesome program overall. Definitely enjoyed interviewing there!"
"Adelphi has a unique interview format. There were people in my group and we met with a faculty member and a 4th year student. The only instruction we were given to to introduce ourselves, otherwise we all just talked for approx. 2 hours (had 1 break). At the end we met with 2 first year students for cookies and to answer any questions. Surprisingly, it was a pretty good experience and I enjoyed my groupmates. However, it is really tough to judge your own performance and I left feeling like I had no idea how I did."
"Very negative - almost turned me off to the program; but i didnt get in, so it doesnt matter one way or the other."
