<p>i was just wondering, does NU give interviews to prospective students? i was looking around on their website and they don't seem to have a link for scheduling one.. does anyone know if they give any? thanks!</p>
<p>Yes, thru local alumni</p>
<p>Here's the site: <a href="http://ugadm.northwestern.edu/aac_intv/%5B/url%5D">http://ugadm.northwestern.edu/aac_intv/</a></p>
<p>Yet, it seems it is too late to book an interview and no more room to get into an interview.</p>
<p>I see that you applied ED. The admissions office told my D that all ED interviews had to be completed by November 1. Only alumni interviews were offered and she told her that very few ED kids interview. My D was able to schedule a last minute ED interview before the 1st, but I got the feeling that it certainly wouldn't count against you if you didn't have one.</p>
<p>oohh bummer. blah, i should have checked their site sooner. ok, thanks anyway!</p>
<p>The interview is considered but not essential!</p>
<p>Are the interviews for Northwestern really informal (the interviewer mainly answers your questions; doesn't really ask questions) or not?</p>
<p>Oh and what kind of questions do they ask? I mean, I'm guessing they are going to ask "Why do you want to go to Northwestern?" and etc, but anything that caught any of you off-guard somewhat?</p>
<p>For Regular Decision applicants, it is not too late to sign up for interviews.</p>
<p>Please know that interviews are only available in certain areas where we have Alumni Admission Council members. To learn whether interviews are available in your area, please visit <a href="http://ugadm.northwestern.edu/student-intv%5B/url%5D">http://ugadm.northwestern.edu/student-intv</a></p>
<p>i applied ED to NU and had an interview. It wasn't informal or formal...it was somewhere in between. I met with an alum at his office, and he asked me the typical interview stuff -- what makes me interested in NU more than any school, what didn't you like, what do you do outside of school, etc.</p>
<p>Oh darn...there are no alumni in my area?! That's surprising and sad. I actually like interviews.</p>
