When I said “better late than never”, I was under the impression that the interview had occurred in the last 2-3 weeks. 3 months is a significant time lapse.

If this were a different situation, such as if 3 months had passed and you still hadn’t thanked your Aunt for a birthday present, it would okay and still appropriate to send a card, and apologize for the delay.

However, in this scenario, 3 months down the road, I don’t think it would help your chances and it would call attention to the fact you didn’t send one. They probably didn’t even notice. As D’yer said, if there is a reason to update the school with new information (you won a prestigious award), you could then reiterate how much you enjoyed meeting with the school’s representative.
