Dumb question about interviews

<p>Are interviews offered to everyone who applies, in areas where alumni are available? Or is it just for people who look impressive after a cursory look at applications></p>

<p>offered to everyone who applies where alumni are available</p>

<p>followup dumb question: i got contacted for an interview by princeton - but the 2 other kids that applied from my school did not…</p>

<p>any reason?</p>

<p>nope, maybe they live in a different area than you and/or were assigned to a different interviewer who hasn’t contacted them yet</p>

<p>doesnt mean a thing</p>

<p>It is not uncommon for 3 kids from the same high school to have 3 different interviewers for the same college, particularly if you don’t live in the middle of nowhere.</p>
