@GSTourGuides By any chance, do you know how the interview is structured and how we can prepare for it? Also is there a dress code for a virtual interview?

I don’t know any specifics about what the interview will look like. Most likely they want to assess your motivation for why you are interested in Tel Aviv University AND Columbia University AND this program in particular, your long-term goals, etc. It may be helpful to do some research on what the “typical” interview is like for applying directly to Tel Aviv University (rather than to this dual-degree program). I can’t be sure, but at least from the other dual-degree programs, the interviews can often be like a hybrid typical American style college interview/typical university x style interview.

As far as dress code, there isn’t anything specific, but it’s always better to overdress than underdress. And I would advise dressing the same as how you would dress for an in-person interview.For boys, perhaps a button-down shirt with a blazer; for girls, maybe a professional (office-appropriate) dress. But it’s up to you and what you’re comfortable with!
