What impressed you negatively?

"nothing at all. The only thing is the weather there (I'm from Florida) and the cost. Also, if you stay with a student, expect to arrive at 8am and have about 4 hours before you're required to check in with admissions. If I were them, I'd start the whole program earlier. " Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Overall, I was VERY impressed with everything. I had an interview with a faculty member first where he asked all the standard questions. My second interview was with a student and he repeated some questions from the first one. That interview didn't even last fifteen minutes. The whole experience was very stress-free and laidback. I had a very specific problem which required special accomodation and everyone there was more than willing to assist me in that regard. Overall, it was great. " Report Response
