What did you wear to interview?

OTOH, I know of a Rennaissance winner who showed for his scholarship interview in shorts and hoodie…

I really don’t think that for college admission interviews how one dresses makes a huge difference. (If you’re not in the ballpark to begin with, wearing a suit to your interview isn’t going to get you accepted.)

Be yourself at the interview. If yourself is a suit & tie kinda guy–go for it. But a suit & tie isn’t a requirement, or even expected.

BTW, according to NCES, UR’s acceptance rate was north of 35% for the 2012-13 cycle.
