<p>I'm asking this question somewhat idly, since I already got in, but I'm nevertheless curious to know. Back in February or so, I got a letter saying something to the effect of, "We're sorry, but your school is not covered under an interviewing committee and we cannot provide an alumni interviewer for you." Anyone have this happen to them? Do you think the lack of an interview had any negative effect on your application?</p>
<p>I didn't have an interview, but I'm not bragging about this fact. If they can't provide an interview, don't stress over it. Just present yourself as honestly as you can in your application and move on. :D</p>
<p>i didnt get an interview either and i got in. lol everyone else in my school got an interview except me. yale really scared me there</p>
<p>Another person from my high school and I both didn't get interviews, and we are both at Yale now. Don't stress out about it! Just work on getting your essays and the rest of your app polished.</p>
<p>hey, fellow yalies, stele said that he/she already got in, so the advice on the app is irrelevant.</p>
<p>about the interview...i also didn't get one, not that i was disappointed about it!!! i beleive that it was due to the fact that i am from a very small town in bulgaria, very far away from Sofia. i know that all the yale candidates in the big bulgarian cities got interviews, and none of them got in...</p>
<p>so the lack of interview either helped my app, or it did not make any difference at all!!!</p>
<p>Mariela I'm from a small bulgarian town too :) I'm applying this fall. Please tell me how did you get in. What was so special about you that got you into Harvard Yale and Princeton?</p>
<p>...and Columbia and Penn...</p>
<p>Well, the truth is I DON'T KNOW!!! I believe that only the adcoms at these schools can answer your question.</p>
<p>Truth is, I have worked my ass off to get into these schools. I have done a lot of things, but I don't consider myself "special".</p>
<p>I am just a normal girl who had the courage to follow her dream despite what everybody else was telling her. I am glad and immensely grateful that everything turned out so well...</p>
