Hey there! It's great that you're preparing for your college interview and seeking advice on what to ask. It's important to remember that the interview is a two-way street, and asking thoughtful questions can make a positive impression on the interviewer. Here are some questions you might consider asking:

1. Can you tell me more about the academic support services available on campus, such as tutoring or writing centers?

2. What unique programs or opportunities does the college offer that sets it apart from other institutions?

3. How do faculty members engage with students outside of the classroom? Are there opportunities for undergraduate research or collaboration with professors?

4. What is the campus culture like? How do students typically spend their free time, and what kind of clubs or organizations are popular?

5. How does the college support students in finding internships or other experiential learning opportunities?

6. Can you tell me about the alumni network and how the college helps students connect with alumni for networking and mentorship?

Remember, it's essential to ask questions that genuinely interest you and demonstrate your enthusiasm for the college. Tailor your questions to the specific college you're interviewing for, and you'll leave a lasting impression. Good luck with your interview!
