<p>How much of the application needs to be completed in order to be considered for an interview? The common app, supplement, just starting the common app, sending scores?</p>
<p>To be offered an interview, your application needs to be sent in. Whether the scores and other school documentation gets in yet, won’t hold up your app. They are assumed to follow. Once you hit “submit”, you’ll be eligible. Now you may or may not get offered one primarily based on the availability of interviewers in your area. I’m 99% positive that Princeton does not pre-sort applicants in order to determine whom to offer interviews.</p>
<p>In general, you’ll be on a potential interview list regardless if you’re a shoo-in or a zero-chancer. If you’re an SCEA applicant, PTon definitely wants you interviewed quickly if at all possible.</p>
<p>I attended a Bay Area Princeton information session last night. The admissions rep said that Princeton interviewed 98 percent of their applicant pool last year. T26E4 is right that getting an interview spot is a non-selective process, and that Princeton strives to interview everyone applying.</p>
<p>Princeton attempts to interview every applicant including all international applicants. The interview is part of the university’s holistic review process.</p>
<p>If your application is not complete the interviewer will be told that your application is incomplete. I was assigned an applicant to interview whose application was incomplete. I told that applicant that I would interview my other assigned students first. I interviewed the student with an incomplete application after their application was complete.</p>
<p>Make every effort to have your application complete by the deadline.</p>
