What to wear for interview?

Prep School Admissions
1

<p>Hi! I haven't posted in a while, so its about that time that I started getting ready for my interviews. Thought I start this thread to seek more advice, most importantly, what questions do they ask during it. And what did you wear, or planning to wear?</p>

<p>wear whatever coordinates with the schools dress code and base it on the weather for the day. do not wear flip flops or sneakers. look presentable and nice</p>

3

<p>I wore a knee-length pencil skirt, black v-neck (but not too low cut) sweater and nude flats. It was comfy, simple, and professional.</p>

<p>I wore basically the same as ballerina22. (However, it was snowing so I wore boots instead of flats). Just remember that it’s better to be overdressed than underdressed. And make sure that if you wear a skirt, pull on some tights. :)</p>

<p>Thank you all, but what should I wear if I am a guy?</p>

7

<p>nice slacks and a button down shirt with a tie and maybe jacket. all depends on the school’s dress code</p>

<p>Remember that the objective at the interview is to show that YOU WILL FIT IN at the school.</p>

<p>@HADES98: Did you not read that thread I included above?</p>

<p>If you were my son, I would advise clean-pressed khakis, blue blazer, dress shirt, and tie; regardless of the dress code of the school. Better to err on the side of formality in these situations…always.</p>

<p>@SevenDad Thanks for the advice, I think I am wearing khakis, dress shoes, and a clean button up. No tie.</p>

<p>@HADES98, if school’s dress code requires a tie for boys, then wear a tie to the interview. Do NOT go dressed more casually than the dress code. </p>

<p>You are there to impress the AOs, not show how laid-back your personal style is.</p>
