So I turned in my undergraduate USD application but have seen a lot of certain prospective students from the past offered an interview by USD admissions during decision time. It says absolutely nothing about an interview/sign up for undergraduate prospective students on their website. I really want to get accepted and I will drive 2 hours just for an interview. Should I contact my counselor about a potential interview? Or would that be too pushy? I just feel like the opportunity is out there.
Not pushy at all, I don’t think they are necessary based on experience of having a couple accepted with the big scholarships without an interview - but it is certainly ok to ask the admissions rep for your area if interview slots are available because you would love to share your enthusiasm, etc., for USD if they are.
I think it would show your interest, and that would be good. If you inquire politely, it is not too pushy.
