   The GU interview had 4-5 people in the room (various professors, plus a rep from WHC who also teaches at GU there too). The WHC interview was 1-on-1. The questions were very similar between the two, and very basic - just a review of my background. ...

   Hi there, So I'm guessing you all got the invite today about the receptions and WHC interviews. If they don't conclude the interviews until Oct 30, I'm thinking there's no way they will have a decision until early Nov at best, but surely before Nov....

    Shaw913, that sounds promising! I'm sure they wouldn't have bothered asking if they didn't really like your application. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!!

    I didn't do the mycollegi video, but I live in the area. So, it was easier for me to come in person than to prepare a video; and I prefer meeting people firsthand if possible. It was a pretty short interview - the questions that they asked were ver...

    I was there on Monday & I think the options for interviews ran through next week. Admissions folks that I spoke with said to expect decisions in early Oct. Didn't give a fixed date. But the scholarship deadline was Oct 6, so I think it will ta...

    I rec'd an interview invite on 8/26. It seems strange that they would ask for you to complete the scholarship form and not be interested in meeting you for admission to the school, itself. You might try calling or emailing into the admissions offic...
