If you are worried about your next college interview and are looking for college admissions interview questions and answers to practice with, you've come to the right place. College admissions interviews are an obstacle that you will have to overcome to start a new chapter in your academic life, with or without the help of a college admissions consulting service. Even though college interviews are extremely common, not all schools include interviews in their admissions process. If you get invited to an interview, you better bring your A-game, which is why it's so important to learn how to prepare for a college interview. Being prepared for whatever question the admissions committee might throw at you will help you feel more relaxed and confident, thus boosting your chances of acceptance. 

#091 – Today, we uncover the admission requirements for Cornell University, focusing deeply on the non-academic factors. For selective universities, high academic achievement is expected and cannot be counted on to differentiate you as a candidate. Rather, it is the non-academic factors of your application that will set you apart. Cornell University, a school with a 10% admission rate, looks for several factors in their applicants, including character, community involvement, and their reasons for choosing Cornell, in addition to intellectual potential. Jankel and I talk about the ways in which selective schools review an applicant's extracurricular activities, and provide you with the reasons why they do it, namely, to gain a good idea of who you are as a person and what is truly important to you as an individual. We go over the importance of having alignment between your college essay, your extracurricular activities, and what you say are your passions. Additionally, we talk about the college interview, the step in the admission process in which questions will be asked about your extracurricular activities.

#078 – Today, we dissect a part of the college admission process that many applicants find very challenging, the college interview. Jankel and I dive into the details of the interview, which for some schools is a required portion of the application, while for others it is optional or not considered at all. We begin the episode by tracing the steps you will take beginning the senior year of high school. These steps include turning your college applications and scheduling your college interviews where they are required or made optional. We present important facts about your college interviews, and what you can do to find out whether or not the schools you will be applying to will require an interview. Additionally, we will go over some of the questions you may be asked. The questions we present are some of the questions you should expect to be asked. This is by no means an episode that presents all the questions you may be asked, but rather, it gives you a great idea of what to expect on your interview, how to prepare for it, and what to do after each interview. We also present two very important sets of information you should have ready with you. One is to be used throughout the interview, and the other at the end of the interview. By the time you get to the end of this episode, you will understand the purpose of college interviews, know how important they really are to your chances for admission, have a plan to prepare to do great in them, and know how to stand out by having a good follow-up response after each interview. You can find the show notes for this episode at https://collegemetropolis.com/78.  Please help us reach more high school students and parents by giving us a 5-star rating and leaving us a positive review. We will truly appreciate it. Thank you!
