In terms of transfer admissions, is there a difference between having an interview with an admissions officer versus an alum?
Did you get contacted for an interview? That’s interesting…usually transfer applicants don’t get interviewed (and when they do, it’s usually by alumni). I would assume that having an interview with an admissions officer is a potentially good sign, since they’re the ones who are actually reading our applications and making decisions about who gets in.
Yes, I was contacted to interview with an admissions officer over Skype.
Have you applied to Harvard previously as a freshman applicant? Apparently, Harvard only offers interviews to transfer applicants that they haven’t interviewed before…
Nope, I’ve never applied before!
