What are your general comments?

"Overall I was highly impressed with this school. The facilities are nice, especially with the new building. The interview day is long but worth it.

The admissions committee meets once a week, so they get back to you quickly. They're also very proud of their history. I'm very excited about the school and can't wait to hear back from them!"
