What are your general comments?

"When you arrive at the school, they give you a bag with your schedule for the 3.5 hours inside. Everyone attends an orientation with the Dean of Admissions for 40 minutes. Then you break up into different rotation groups. Some will go write a brief one page essay, others will go to their faculty/student interview, others their alumni/student interview, or you will go on the tour of the campus. The alumni/student interview is basically all of the questions off of this website asked in a 15 mintue period. Make sure you have questions to ask them for the last 5 minutes. The faculty/student interview is more relaxed and gives you more of a chance to show them who you really are." Report Response
