Q<br />
·Just be yourself. This sounds cheesy but remember, the<br />
college already has your application; they already know your<br />
grades and test scores, now just let your personality shine<br />
through.<br />
·Have questions and take the opportunity to get to know<br />
about the school. This isn’t just about the college seeing if<br />
you’re a good fit for them, it’s also your opportunity to see if<br />
the school is a good fit for you. From personal experience, I<br />
lost interest in what I thought to be my “Dream School” after I<br />
got talking with my interviewer and realized that the campus<br />
vibe just wasn’t what I was looking for.<br />
·Don’t over prepare!!! This is a big one. Of course, you should<br />
prep for you interview and get comfortable answering and<br />
asking questions, but over preparing can result in sounding<br />
robotic or extremely rehearsed.<br />
