@afrost I don't think I am going to matt the work, in any case they don't require that as far as I understand. Will probably put it in a box. Wonder if it needs to be a special box or I could recycle an Illford paper box.
The in person interview is expensive but I think its an investment to find the right place for the next two years. I wouldn't want to save $700 now and end up in a school I don't relate to for two years and of course pay for the course!
