@flyer17 what area/region are you from?
@hcmom65 I’m from Lousisana, so I guess the southern region!
I’m from Upstate South Carolina, and I haven’t received an email about interviews yet!
Does anyone know the specific dates for selection weekend? The only information I can find mentions late March.
I’m a nominee, but I haven’t received an email about an interview. Should I be worried?
I’m from New York by the way
I had my regional interview this weekend!! Questions are definitely different than the typical college interview. But they were all very friendly and excited about my interest in UVa. Good luck everyone!
@amorlibrex could you elaborate on what type of questions you had? It might be helpful to those who have not had their interviews. thank you!
We are in Va and my daughter got an email for an interview in Feb
@hcmom65 sure! They were all based on my activities that I had listed then connected to some sort of current event or philosophical question. For example, I had listed Model UN as an activity, so they asked me about my opinions on the recent UN Israeli decision. They also asked about the balance between freedom of speech and stopping hate speech on campus. I would recommend knowing whats going on around the world, especially if they somehow pertain to your interest. I think my interview was only about 25 minutes because they had to move to the next nom. Hope this helps
I haven’t been contacted about my first interview yet. Should I reach out to the regional committee?
@amorlibrex huge thanks. That is what I was suggesting to my child…just know what is going on around the world…
I got contacted for an interview today!!!
Has anyone’s nominee status changed?
so if you haven’t recieved an email about an interview, should you assume you aren’t moving onto the next round? or will they send an email notifying you that you’ve been denied?
Has anyone from the Boston, MA area heard anything?
@CCMom16 I’m from the Boston, MA area and have yet to hear back…
Also from Boston, MA. Haven’t heard, but I never got the confirmation that my application had been reviewed, even though I thought we were supposed to get one–I called and they said it was fine, but I’m nervous. I also was late replying to the email to save the date, so I sorta feel like I might’ve screwed myself. In the email it said they would “notify candidates selected for an interview”… does that mean if I wasn’t notified I wasn’t selected? Very confusing and nerve-wracking.
Also from Boston, MA…still haven’t heard…?
I talked to MA rep, and she said that there was a mixup with the release date, so we should expect a release sometime next week or the one after. She also said that they always notify, whether you’re selected for an interview or not. Nice to have the relief.
