Worried International Applicant :S

<p>This might come off as a bit paranoid or even neurotic but it's about interview offers. So I have been told numerous times that university interviews are based on availability and geographic location but this isn't true for some schools like Cornell or Dartmouth. On Dartmouth's website, it plainly states that interviews are not to be requested and are only given out to possibly prospective students. This is what it said on the site's interview policy: "Therefore, we will only offer alumni interviews if we need further information from an applicant." One of my friends has gotten his offer but I haven't yet. Maybe it's because all of my application materials haven't been received but that's highly unlikely. Is this something to be worried about? I wouldn't worry if it were for other schools but Dartmouth clearly says otherwise. Any advice?</p>

<p>Have you got the interview by now?</p>

<p>Just because they require ‘further information from an applicant’ does by no means translate into ‘because we’re more interested in that applicant’. It just means that the information they already have may not be enough, they need to verify some aspects of the application or simply because they can’t get a proper sketch of an applicant. It could OBVIOUSLY also mean that they’re particularly interested in an applicant, but can’t be so for everyone they interview.</p>

<p>So relax, don’t fret over it. I, for one, have read several times on CC that Dartmouth does accept students without interviews, as do most Ivies.</p>

<p>PS- I’m a D-applicant too- international. No offer for interview yet, and I’m totally cool about it ;)</p>

<p>I haven’t been contacted for an interview as well. I’ve only had one interview out of the 5 colleges I applied to. Haha</p>

<p>I received a likely letter without an interview. I think you’re fine!</p>
