What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"I got a little confused by the parking situation, but I was able to figure it out. Also, when they say they want you to be there 30 mins early, I would definitely make sure to be that early, if not even earlier. You have to fill out paperwork, so it helps to get there early so you do not have to worry about it later." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"When I walked into the admissions office before my first interview, I felt everything was very well-organized and explained to us about what was going to happen that day. Toward the middle of the day, the Dean of Admissions spoke with us and she made me feel even more welcome. She also described to us the rest of the application process, which I thought was very important in setting our minds at ease about how long we would have to wait for a decision, etc. Additionally, I found both of my interviewers to be very attentive and knowledgeable about my application.
