<p>I've literally just decided to apply to MHC, and unfortunately because of this last-minute decision, am unable to interview. Will this significantly decrease my chances?</p>
<p>Stats:
GPA: 95.67 U, 98.89 W/4.0 U & W
ACT: 28, but I'm not submitting it
APs: 6 total. Currently I have two 5s and two 4s.
ECs: Marching Band (section leader), Yearbook (editor), Literary Magazine (treasurer), Girl Scouts (12 years), NHS, Art Honors Society, Pit Orchestra, and Jazz Band. I probably forgot some. </p>
<p>I have good recs, plus an additional art rec that is quite amazing.</p>
<p>I'm practically kicking myself for not visiting MHC when my mom and I drove up to Smith a month ago. :|</p>

<p>No. But why not ask for an alumna interview?</p>

<p>Your ACT is fine and within the mid 50%. You might consider submitting it.</p>
<p>Ooh, I totally forgot about alumna interviews! Hopefully I’m not too late…</p>
<p>As for the ACT, my family is short on money at the moment, so I really don’t want to bother my mother with more college fees, as we still need to pay for numerous CSS Profiles. :|</p>
<p>I emailed MHC and they said the last day for an interview was Jan 20
I do not know if they meant alumna or office interview…</p>
<p>Actually, I scheduled an alumna interview for tomorrow. It’s my first alumna interview (my other three were all done on campus), so I’m a tad nervous.</p>
<p>Don’t be nervous…I do these kinds of interviews for another school and I do everything possible to make the candidate feel at ease. They are not out to trick you or intimidate you…my advice, relax and be yourself. Good luck!</p>
<p>The interview was wonderful! My almuna was really nice, and told me to keep her posted on where I get accepted, and where I choose to attend. We talked about the other schools that I was applying to, and she had good things to say about all of them, which was really nice. =D</p>
