Was this an interview offer?

<p>" I’m an admissions volunteer, and I heard that you might be interested in more information about ____ College. I would be happy to serve as a local resource in case you have questions or would like to hear more about what it’s like to attend ____. If you would like more information, please do not hesitate to contact me.</p>

<p>I look forward to talking with you"</p>

<p>Sorry, this may be a stupid question, but I requested an interview yesterday so is she offering an interview or is she just letting me know that she’s there to answer questions? </p>

<p>Are you sure this school offers interviews, or just the opportunity to meet with someone connected with the college? That she said “I heard” seems to imply the college told her, and if all she offered was to meet and give you more info than maybe that’s all this college does.</p>

<p>It was NOT an offer to interview. Read it at face value – that person is offering to be a local source of questions for you and your parents.</p>

<p>@mikemac‌ Well I submitted a ‘‘request an off-campus alumni interview’’ form so they do conduct interviews.</p>

<p>@T26E4‌ Okay, I just thought maybe it was because of the timing and because she mentioned where she lived which is nearby.</p>

<p>Let’s clear any confusion. The note was an open ended offer. Email her back and say – “that wasn’t an interview request was it? If so, we can meet. Otherwise, thanks for reaching out to me – it’s nice to know someone is nearby who can help”</p>

<p>@T26E4‌ Thanks for the help! I discovered it wasn’t an interview offer when I received a different e-mail a few hours later giving me info about an interview(:</p>
