What are your general comments?

"Overall, I like the school and the resources it has to offer. the faculty seem really nice and so do the few students I got to meet. The school should do a better job of presenting itself though. The tours were poorly organized, sometimes there was no student to lead the tours, sometimes they were led by first years who didn't really know what was going on yet. I was one of the 6 people being interviewed at the psychiatric center off campus which meant I missed a lot of the talks and tours anyways." Report Response
