"The 2 faculty who interviewed me were great. It impressed me how they seemed genuinely interested in learning about me, and having a conversation, not an interview. Also, they did an excellent job of matching me with interviewers who had things in common with me--making the interview all the better." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Nice and relaxing. If you're in the 8am group, you have a quick financial aid presentation followed by your interviews (1 or 2). Then you join up with the 11am group, everyone has lunch together and tour, then 8am can leave, while the 11am group then waits for their interviews. Plus 8am group was only 6 people, then 11am group had about 10. " Report Response
