<p>Do interviewers have your application on hand or do you have to give a copy to him/her</p>

<p>They only have a minimal amount of information about you (no essays, no stats, etc—pretty much only your name and high school). You can bring a resume to the interview, but it’s usually not necessary.</p>

<p>depends on the school. As an alum interviewer for a HYP college, I have no info except your contact info. I have no idea whether you’re a shoo-in or a zero chance applicant.</p>

<p>Best of luck to you.</p>

<p>^ He’s right. They dont want any bias in the interviewing game. </p>

<p>A close friend applied to Princeton with a 1690 this year… When he went for the interview, the guy said they’d be stupid to reject him (didnt know his stats, obviosuly).</p>

<p>Needless to say, he was rejected.</p>

<p>It depends on the school and --when it comes to alumni interviewers – it also can depend on the particular region. For instance, I’ve interviewed for Harvard and have headed my regional alumni interviewing committee. Where I live, Harvard only sends us very basic info on applicants: name, school, contact info, whether the student is a legacy or URM, and possibly the student’s proposed majors. Yet, an alum interviewer from Long Island --where far more students apply than from my region – said that Harvard provided alum interviewers with voluminous info on the applicants.</p>
