At the school

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"After spending over $800 for a round-trip flight, I did a pre-interview drive through the campus the day before my interview. I was shocked at the school's location, the poor condition of the school and the poor local neighborhood. I walked inside the school, and it smelled like an old gymnasium. In turn, I actually cancelled my interview, because there was no way I was going to spend four years there. Realize that this school is run-down and in a very isolated area with a 30-45 minuted minimum commute time from home to school. I've seen dilapidation in Harlem and North Philadelphia, but this place is scary in its own, unique way." Report Response
