Admissions Interviews - All Schools?

Applying to College
1

<p>As of now, these are the colleges on my short list, arranged by category, and then in order within each category.</p>

<p>IVY - REACH</p>

<p>1.) Dartmouth
2.) Cornell (tie)
U Penn (tie)
Brown (tie)</p>

<p>MORE SELECTIVE - MATCH</p>

<p>1.) UVA
2.) Carnegie Mellon U</p>

<p>LIKELY</p>

<p>1.) U of Pittsburgh </p>

<p>NOT SURE ABOUT ANYMORE</p>

<p>Notre Dame (I'm Catholic, but a Catholic school...)
U Mich (Too big/far away)
Penn State (WAY too big)</p>

<p>I plan to major in Finance or Economics, depending on the school. Anyway, my question is, when I visit colleges this summer, should I schedule an admissions interview along with the college visit/tour/info session? (This question applies only to schools that still have on-campus interviews the summer before senior year. Dartmouth, for one, does not do such interviews anymore.) What if I end up not even applying to a school at which I interview (due to a possible ED acceptance at another school, per se)? Any and all advice is appreciated! Thank you!</p>

<p>Each school will have its interview policy detailed on its admission site. Some don't offer on-campus interviews, but, for those that do, having your interview at the same time as your visit certainly makes sense. Be sure you are prepared; you may want to do an interview at a safety or match school first, then work your way up the food chain.</p>
