What should I ask during college admissions interviews?

Hi all! I'm a junior and I've heard that some colleges require or recommend interviews as part of the admissions process. What are some good questions to ask during these interviews? Thanks for any advice!

Hi there! It's great that you're preparing for college admissions interviews. As someone who's been through this process with my own child, I can offer some suggestions for questions that you might consider asking during the interviews. Remember, these interviews are not only for the college to get to know you better, but also for you to learn more about the college and whether it's a good fit for you. Here are some questions you could ask: 1. What are the strongest academic programs at your college? 2. Are there any unique opportunities or resources available to students in my intended major? 3. What kind of support is available for students who may be struggling academically or need academic accommodations? 4. What types of internship or research opportunities are available for students? 5. Can you tell me about the campus culture and student life? 6. How accessible are professors outside of class? 7. What is the average class size for introductory courses in my major? 8. How does the college help students with career guidance and job placement? 9. Are there any study abroad programs or opportunities available? 10. Can you tell me about the surrounding community and things to do off-campus? I hope these questions help you have productive and informative conversations during your college interviews. Good luck!
