"I had the afternoon session which was nice because we got the tour first, and got to mingle with the other intervieews. We had a delicious lunch, and then awaited our interviews. The interviews were a bit unorganized with some people going out of order because of the interviewers, but overall it was laid-back and non-stressful. Everyone is very nice and really wants to make you feel comfortable. Awesome school, I definitely want to go here!" Report Response
