Interview

I read on the website a while back that said that applicants from California don’t interview with the school But then in another thread an applicant from cali received an interview call. Does any body know whether cali kids have interviews, and whether the school contacts the student or if we have to arrange for one ourselves?

It used to be that Stanford never interviewed applicants from CA because there are so many of them. They started offering interviews to residents of certain counties in CA a couple of admissions cycles ago. It’s a classic example of “Don’t call us; we’ll call you.” If they offer interviews in your area and there is an interviewer, they will contact you. If they don’t, don’t sweat it.
