Interview

<p>Harvard will send you an interviewer's contact info after you apply right? Is this the case with Princeton and Yale as well...?</p>

<p>I thought you had to contact the interviewer first...</p>

<p>I dunno about Pton, Yale, but yes, that is how it goes with Harvard.</p>

<p>For yale, I sent in the app and then the interviewer guy contacted me.... I haven't heard anything from harvard yet.</p>

<p>For Yale and Princeton, the interview is recommended but not compulsory. For Harvard it is compulsory.</p>

<p>Most top tier schools contact you when you send in the applications</p>

<p>Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Dartmouth, Brown, Cornell, Carnegie Mellon, Georgetown</p>

<p>Stanford does not offer interviews.</p>

<p>Has anyone been contacted by an interviewer from Harvard?</p>

<p>Correction: you apply to Harvard then the interviewer contacts you.</p>

<p>If you're international, check the Harvard site for info about interviews. Seems I remember that you have to attempt to contact an interviewer.</p>

<p>For students in the U.S., the interviewer contacts you, and that contact may occur as late as early March. When you're contacted basically is the luck of the draw. It depends on when the local alum interviewing committee gets your info from Harvard, and it also depends on the availability of alum interviewers. It's not related to how interested Harvard is in you.</p>

<p>Good tip:</p>

<p>Send your interviewer a thank you card in the mail as soon as the interview is over.
Chances are, they haven't written the letter yet.</p>
