hahaha
I've been hearing that a lot..."Martel is not a college."

Anyone know what we have to do now? Is there anything else we should look into, fill out, etc? Or do we just patiently wait until Dec. 15th haha

Just college rivalry stuff...don't worry, if you do come to Rice you will be indoctrinated, er, educated, about all of this...and definitely don't sweat which college you will be in as you will come to love the one they assign you to!

Cocoaluna: haha same! I decided not to though...it would be insanely depressing if I had to remove it from my groups on December 15th haha
Jersey: two and a half hours?!

Those of you have not checked out Rice's virtual tour on their site...I suggest you check it out! It's partly why I fell in love with Rice...

What? How in the world did your interview last two and a half hours?

Mine was just thirty minutes, and I felt I did really well. Dx

I was pretty surprised that it lasted so long. I got to her house at 1 and I guess we ended up having a lot to talk about -- I asked her about her high school experience and how that compared with her experience at Rice, I asked about the dating scene at Rice (lol), her thesis for her major, her work experience, her benefits as an alumna, the leniency of the campus, just a lot of stuff that made me even more excited about Rice in the event that I get in. I guess I had a lot of questions and she did too, and when I got back into my car I checked my watch and it was 3:30, and I was like omg! But it didn't feel like it was that long, which is good.

Heheh, i'm sure you all did well. I'd say quality, not quantity, but hey, Jersey, so long as it was a good interview it doesn't matter if it were long or not =P

I didn't even get to do an interview ahh lol

Interviews are more for helping the student gather information than for selecting new Rice students. I'm sure you both did fine!
