What are your general comments?

"I was in a small group, all very friendly people. We were met by some administration members, who laid out the day for us over breakfast. We handed in our secondary applications with the checks. Then we had our interviews. My interviewer was very laid back. He didn't ask any difficult questions and we had a very nice chat. Everyone at the school made me feel very welcome and extremely comfortable. Then we had lunch and tour with first year students, who answered all of our questions. We then spoke to more people from administration and financial aid. Everyone was very very friendly and easily approachable." Report Response
