Hi! So I applied ED to NU for communications and completely missed the email notifying me to sign up for an alumni interview. I’m just wondering if not interviewing would hurt my chances? What are you experiences? Thanks everyone!
Not going doesn’t hurt you. Going would have shown a little more of demonstrated interest but it doesn’t make much of a difference I believe.
Thanks! I applied ED so I guess there’s nothing that can demonstrate more interest than that haha
Their admissions FAQs specifically says that not interviewing won’t affect your application, so I wouldn’t worry. I bet a lot of those emails go to spam, unnoticed until it’s too late. https://admissions.northwestern.edu/apply/admission-interviews.html
Congratulations and good luck on your NU app - RELAX! I am proud parent of 2 NU alums. One was admitted ED and one RD. Neither interviewed. Go Cats!
