Interviews

Some universities require an interview, but many do not. For every interview, be on time. If you know you'll be delayed, call to let them know in advance. Also, review information and notes you have on the university and prepare a list of questions ahead of time. Take the list with you, so that you cover everything you wanted to find out.

In your interview, you'll probably be asked about your academic background, interests, hobbies, goals and why you're interested in the university. It is normal to be a little nervous. Try to see it as a conversation in which you ask questions, too. If you do that, you'll be more likely to relax and enjoy the experience.
