<p>I received a voicemail from a Cornell alumnus and she said, “Hello my name is ____ ______ and I am a graduate from Cornell and part of the Cornell Alumni Ambassador Program. I am calling regarding your application to Cornell, please give me a call back when you can. Thank you!”</p>
<p>I called back and had to leave my own voicemail…</p>
<p>Should I be expecting some sort of interview? Or could there be a glitch in my application that she is calling to discuss?</p>
<p>sounds like an interview</p>
<p>Yea most likely an informative interview. There are quite a few threads here that will show you what to expect.</p>
<p>Thanks so much, still waiting for a return call. Reading a bit about them so I’m not totally stumped. A bit nervous</p>
<p>yup, it’s an interview call. lol, where do you live? </p>
<p>I also got that exact message when my interviewer called and I had to leave my own voice mail for him when as well… was a bit confused because they never mentioned “interview” in the message. but i’m 99.99% sure yours is too, good luck :)</p>
<p>She is an alumna voluteer who will interview you for Cornell. It is just informational, though:</p>

<p>Does Cornell attempt to interview everyone from major metropolitan areas?</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>No, alumni try to get to as many people as possible. Since most alumni live in major metro areas, you stand a better chance of being contacted for an information session than if you lived in a more remote area.</p>
<p>I don’t think it’s for an interview. I got a similar call from an alumni who said the same thing you said above about a week ago. The person just asked if i had any questions about Cornell and i said not right now, but I’ll probably think of something later. So she just gave me her number and that was that. All the times that i have had an interview, the person told me right away that they called to schedule and interview. By any chance are you a minority?</p>
<p>yea. I got an email from human ecology asking if i had any questions and so forth. Its kinda random cause i talked with a student rep like 2 months ago.</p>
