Hi kkenamm.

I will be starting the CNL program in the Fall.

I have my interview for the program next week; does anyone have any tips or suggestions for interview prep??

Hi hurtks,

The interview was really short! Mine was only 15 minutes and they only ask you 5 or 6 questions. Specific ones I remember are "what is your definition of a CNL" "Tell me about a time you showed leadership", and "How do you handle stress". The also asked me a scenario question about a classmate sending you the answers to an online exam and how you could handle the situation. Hope this helps!

Nice to meet you KWRIGHT17!

Thanks for sharing your experience, that helps a ton! How long after the interview did you hear back about your acceptance?

kkennam · Jan 7, 2015

I received my acceptance packet about three packet about three weeks after my interview. I applied for early decision and my interview was on December 5 and I received my acceptance letter on December 23rd. Mine came in the mail really fast though since I live so close to GRU so it could take longer. Hope this helps!

Im looking into this program.....does an interview equal acceptance? Im sure not everyone gets called for an interview so it must mean they like what they see on paper. What is the possibility of bombing the interview?

An interview does not necessarily equal acceptance-- however, I've received some conflicting information. At the open house, the program director told the group that they will interview all applicants. However, the secretary said that not all applicants get interviews.

I *think* an interview means that they like your information and want to meet with you in person before accepting you. That could easily be wishful thinking though. Would love more information on the topic.
