They invite the whole family to a very nice dinner on Friday night, and then Saturday she will have an interview at some point. Other than the dress which is business formal, the interview is very laid back. For me, there was a professor and two students but I’ve heard from some of my friends who had a different number of students and professors. Also, the students are Presidential Scholars from past years.

They will have her essay and her transcript and they just ask questions about career goals, what drew you to HPU, strengths/weaknesses, what you do in your free time - I think they send out an info sheet with what questions to expect.

The rest of the day is just info sessions for different things at HPU - Honors program, study abroad, different majors and pre-professional programs, etc. I found my guidebook from last year - (take out the spaces) imgur . com/a/Qg3ID

Definitely go because she is basically guaranteed to increase her scholarship money - I think they gave me an extra $2,500/year in my final scholarship offer.
