<p>How much does the alumni interview count for admissions? I mean, I got the standard spiel about getting to know the applicant in person besides just on paper, but I'm not sure mine went stunningly. Anyways, I'm debating withdrawing my application b/c I'm not positive I can get in (w/ or w/o the interview), I still have my Harvard app to be my Ivy League school and I got in the Honors program plus a nice scholarship from UNC-Chapel Hill (which has that big college feel and a damn good basketball team). Idk, any thoughts?</p>
<p>Why withdraw now? Not getting in is no disgrace, and you never know.
If you have a chance at Harvard, you have a chance at Yale.
If you received a nice merit scholarship from Chapel Hill, you are probably qualified. Stick it out - you have nothing to lose at this point.
No one is "positive" they can get in to any highly selective school.</p>
