<p>what parts of the application does the interviewer see?</p>
<p>The interviewer does not see any part of your application. He or she is just given your name, your high school, where you live. He or she may be told a few of your activities but usually not. You can bring a resume if you want. It is up to you</p>

<p>Did you just make this up?</p>
<p>OK Let us do this one more time</p>
<p>I posted a similar response a few threads down but I shall repeat.</p>
<p>Many of us on this board have been interviewers for many years and this is what we receive concerning the student applicants</p>
<p>Name
Contact info (address, phone number, e-mail, etc)
High School Attended
Date that your application (part I) was received
School to which you are applying (CC or SEAS)
Regular Decision or Early Decision Candidate
3 Areas of Academic Interest (from your application Part I)
3 Areas of Activities Interest (from your application Part I)
(If you did not list them on part I of your application, they are not there)</p>
<p>What we do not receive</p>
<p>HS Transcript
SAT, ACT, AP Scores
Essay
Teacher Recs
Guidance Counselor Recs
Application itself - we do not actually see Part I or Part II of your application - that is only seen by the admissions office.</p>
<p>Resume</p>
<p>Personally I enjoy looking at a students resumes at an interview - helps me concentrate on the students area of interest. Other interviewers may not want to look at it - it up to them to decide. From my perspective it does not hurt to bring one with you and the interviewer may choose to accept or decline looking at it. Other students have brought me newspaper articles they have written, scientific abstracts/papers they have published, creative art work they have done, etc. I also enjoy looking at these but that is a personal preference. Check with your interviewer before you bring anything big (One student brought in an entire art portfolio - it was taller than she was)</p>
<p>Some students do bring with them their standardized test scores or HS Transcript. I try NOT to look at these as it clouds the purpose of the interview, which is to get to know the student as a person and not as a score or grade. The admission committee already has these number and we are told as interviewers NOT to concentrate on discussing grades or test scores during the interview. </p>
<p>Most importantly RELAX and be yourself.</p>
