Does Vassar do interviews?

<p>Exactly as the title says...I can't find the answer on the Vassar website. Will it count against me if they don't do alumni interviews and I can't visit?</p>

<p>From the website under Visit Vassar:</p>

<p>Interviews Conducted by members of the Vassar Alumni Admission Program, interviews are available but not required for admission. Alumni interviews are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis and are offered in most United States metropolitan areas and in some foreign countries. To request an interview, please check the interview box on Part I of the Vassar application or on the Vassar Supplement to the Common Application. Please note that Early Decision interview request deadlines are earlier than the Early Decision application deadlines:</p>

<p>EDI
interview request deadline is November 7. </p>

<p>EDII
interview request deadline is December 14. </p>

<p>We strongly suggest that all candidates request interviews well before the application deadline. You must also submit Part I and your application fee or waiver request in order to be considered.</p>

<p>Thanks entomom...guess I missed that part!</p>

<p>I probably won't be able to visit the campus because I live so far away, even though Vassar is my first choice, and I can't apply ED because of my financial situation. Will requesting an interview show sufficient demonstrated interest, or should I try to find a way to visit?</p>
