Got a call from Cornell Ambassadors? (Is this an interview?)

<p>I received a call from someone from Cornell Ambassador, and talked with him. Was this basically an interview?</p>

<p>lmao no it’s not</p>

<p>If he asked you if you had any questions about Cornell and not if you wanted to schedule an interview, then yes, it was.</p>

<p>He asked me if i had questions. It was like a good 15 minutes. Has anyone else got a call?</p>

<p>Yeah, I got one.</p>

<p>Then yes, that was your interview.</p>

<p>Was it the Cornell Ambassadors or the Cornell Alumni Admissions Ambassador’s Network?</p>

<p>If it was the former, that’s only students answering questions and thus was not your “interview”.</p>

<p>If it was the latter, it was an alum who writes a report to the school, this was your “interview”.</p>

<p>Although neither are really interviews, more information sessions.</p>

<p>If I didn’t get a phone call does that mean anything?</p>

<p>@chendrix: wow thats confusing. I think mine was a student. i have a feeling it wasn’t an interview because I didn’t even apply to cornell, yet. All i did was submit my sat scores before i received this call. does anyone know how they found me? since its not an interview it has no effect right?</p>

<p>@easyasabc: If you didn’t get a phone call that means nothing.
The only programs that require interviews are hotel and architecture and those are not offered by CAAAN.</p>

<p>@jakeiscool: If it’s by a student it shouldn’t at all have an effect. Even the CAAAN interviews are only influential if your interviewer is a big-wig or if you are an on-the-fence candidate.</p>

<p>not even architecture is requiring an interview this year. They accepted “interview essays” instead. Apparently you could still have done an interview… something I was unaware of until it was too late -_-;</p>

<p>I did an interview with a member of the Cornell Alumni Admissions Ambassador’s Network. I hope it helps! GL everyone =D</p>
