admissions interview!

<p>help! i have an admisions interview tomorrow at Fairfield and i'm completely unprepared. I don't have a transcript to show, because I haven't recieved my final grades for my junior year yet. is that bad? all i have is an student acitvities sheet, because that's all my guidance counselor told me to bring.</p>

<p>Really, in all my interviews I never brought anything [though I never did a campus interview]. The only important things in the interview are to show your interest in the college and just to know yourself well enough that you exude confidence and assurance in all your responses.</p>

<p>you can type up all your classes/grades and explain you don't have an official transcript. I don't think they'll ask for it, but you'll feel more confident having something like this just in case they do.</p>

<p>Also be sure you have some questions ready to ask that aren't obvious or explained in materials you should have read like the viewbook. I can guarantee you that in each and every college interview they will turn to you and ask if you have any questions. This isn't to kill time or some other mundane reason, its a key part of the interview because it lets the school infer how serious you are about them (at the time of the interview). Someone who has given a lot of thought to a college is going to have questions that their research has raised.</p>

<p>Agreed about the questions part, and I'd advise you to write down their answers. I did that once in an interview and the person went O_O, you must really like my school!</p>
