no interview
i think theyre done sending requests
How long ago? the application cycle of 2025! confirmed by more than one AOs and high school counselors. They simply said not to worry and prepare. Schools do it for a show to make alum think them important. they donât use the interview result as an indicator unless there is a huge redflag.
My student received a Yale interview request two days ago so apparently these are still being sent out.
Like I said, people can make their own judgement on who is credible.
Here is what the Yale AOâs say about interviews in their podcast. Inside the Yale Admissions Office Podcast | Yale College Undergraduate Admissions Episode 8. They sure spend a lot of time going into detail on how they use the interview reports. Must mean they are meaningless and are there only to placate alums.
I feel so âimportantâ as an alum after I just finished my 10th interview this year. And I get no Yale swag either!
My student ended up receiving an interview invite 5 days ago as well. Interviewer indicated they just received the request from Yale and needed to have it scheduled no later than 3/2 (today).
Hi! My son just received an email for Yale interview to schedule next week. Isnt this late in the game?
Yes, probably means he is being considered seriously. Best of luck.
Any tips on preparing for the interview
Thank you
See first post of this thread.
My student had hers today and knows someone else having it even later.
I really donât understand why because decisions come out in just a few weeks.
I know. I just came here to say this. My student also just had hers today. I agree that it seems kind of late to still be interviewing, but the whole college application process feels a little mysterious to me.
Curious if your daughterâs interview was in person or on Zoom? My sonâs interview was from an alumni out of state via zoom.
@BKSquared, my son emailed back with availability time but has not heard back from the the interviewer. She had requested to meet next week and my son emailed her with availability on Tuesday. How long should he wait before sending a follow up email. Thank you.
When did he send the email? Iâd give it until Friday.
She sent the email yesterday on Tuesday. My sin responded the same day. Ok is it ok if we email her tomorrow evening if he doesnât hear back. Thanks
Yes. Make sure he is replying to first email to avoid fat fingering the email address.
Ok thank you
@BKSquared: The interviewer said she wants to get to know him and to give him a chance to ask questions about Yale. In regards to asking questions about Yale, my son has a few questions that he wants to ask but I wanted to know if you have any guidance on that in general. Thank you.
