<p>Please reply soon. My interviewer has e-mailed me and said..."My name is ***** ****** and I have been asked to interview you as a supplement to your application to Princeton University. My evaluation is due in the beginning of February, so I would like to meet with you as soon as possible. What are the best days and times for you? I am available any evening Tuesday through Friday. The interview will probably only take about 30 minutes. Please email me back or call me at *********. I look forward to meeting you." </p>

<p>Isn't this interview optional??? What happens if I turn down the interview? Will it lower my chances for admission. When I looked at Princeton's admission factors on the Princeton Review college guide, the category of interviews was classified as "considered", out of the options "not considered", "considered", "important", and "very important".</p>

<p>Any advice is appreciated. The sooner the better...</p>

<p>Why would you turn them down?</p>

<p>Are you scared of other people</p>

3

<p>It is optional but highly recommended</p>

<p>refuse at your own discretion</p>

4

<p>If I refuse to do the interview, are my chances of admission much lower? You have not taken this question in consideration with your response.</p>

5

<p>Yeah, it would lower your chances.</p>

<p>Whats the big deal? Just go to the interview. If you don't, it looks very strange, since you were offered one. They probably would think you have something to hide.</p>

<p>What reason do you have for not going? And if you dislike school, what about P'ton is attracting you? Wouldn't it be a great opportuity to meet the interviewer and take the opp'ty to ask her about P'ton? BTW, it isn't such a great idea to post her name and # on the web.....</p>

7

<p>well if you have a good(and valid) reason for not doing the interview then it might be possible</p>

<p>But still, anybody who doesnt do it is like disrespecting the school, so be warned</p>

<p>You should be lucky you got contacted... i'm still waiting.</p>
