<p>hey gals!I'm an international RD applicant..just sent off my email request for an interview..so is the interview more of an evaluative nature or informative one?any thoughts?thanks!</p>
<p>I'm not sure how they work it for internationals, but when I applied I requested an alum interview in my area. It was very casual-- we just met for coffee, and it was a mix of her asking me questions about my school/myself/activities (in a very low-key way) and then there was a chance for me to ask any questions I had. Definitely have an interview if you can-- in whatever form. It lets you show them more of your personality and passion and, for me at least, it was a huge factor in my decision to come here-- I kept thinking that if everyone here was as nice and intelligent as my interviewer, then this would be the place for me!</p>
<p>well, I applied to holyoke for ED1 for fall 2007 and am an international student.</p>
<p>Like, Kali19 said, the interview was kinda casual.We met for a cup of coffee.Just to be on the safe side, I took all my transcripts,but, she didn't looked at all.</p>
<p>We had a nice conversation.She asked me about my hobbies/ interests/ about my childhood...what i have been doing these days? Why holyoke? General questions like that...u need not panic about those stuff.</p>
<p>Overall, I got the impression that she was searching for the real "me"....my character. Also, as being an international student, the interviewer also keeps in mind the applicants ability to communicate....her English level...this, i realised later on after the interview was over when my interviewer told me that i had really good english...so, i may not have any problem there at holyoke....at least that's what she told me....</p>
<p>Anyways, best of luck to u , christinesun , for ur interview</p>
<p>I just had my MH interview. It was awesome! It was informative and I'm glad she talked a lot. It was at her house, too. She asked me very low-key, general questions like hobbies and school and "why MH?". Then I asked her questions. It lasted for two hours and she said she'd say tons of good things about me. Number 1 tip: be sure you have good questions! It shows you have interest in them.</p>
<p>okie ..thank u all !:)</p>
<p>I also had interview with an alumni. Like every other girl said, it was kinda informal type. A British girl came up to us and we talked to her too. Now think how was it like! I had almost forgotten, it was an interview. Take it as an opportunity to ask questions. Really good English is required though. Show your passion, it's gonna be awesome.</p>
