Colleges and Universities A-Z Yale University

<p>Hey everyone, I'm going to Yale tomorrow for a college tour/interview, and I have a few questions concerning the student interview. </p>

<p>Firstly, is there anything I should know that Yale places a disproportionate amount of influence? Say, a passion for performing arts or something along those lines? </p>

<p>Secondly, as I'm pretty unfamiliar with the whole admissions processes in terms of the interview stage, are there any basic tips (for either Yale or colleges in general) that the sage CC forum can bequeath on a humble student of the forum? I would certainly appreciate the insight.</p>

<p>Just be yourself. Speak about what makes you tick.</p>

<p>At least from my personal experience, I would recommend going in WITHOUT preparation. Your answers will be less stale and more personal. Be yourself. Pour out your feelings for things you love.</p>
