"Leanne sat with the students in the lounge/hall as we waited for our interviews. Also, there were many students who talked with us and answered questions about the school. Be prepared to talk with both candidates and students in the morning." Report Response
"I wish that the staff/faculty would have addressed what I think are pertinent concerns regarding the issues any new school would face. I felt as though my questions might have a negative impact on my acceptance chances, as they were pretty direct. I felt that two of the three students who sat with us rather dodged these questions. " Report Response
"A student told me the interview was paramount to acceptance- probably the most important thing." Report Response
"The staff and faculty (including my two interviewers) were great. I had an awesome interview experience. My recommendation with respect to the interview is to truly be candid, thoughtful, and make those impersonal questions personal. That'll be helpful in standing out. I think that personality is important to this school- more than I have felt at the other schools I had interviewed at." Report Response
