How do college interviews work?

Hi, I'm a junior and I've heard that some colleges require interviews as part of the application process. Can anyone explain how these interviews work, what to expect, and how to prepare for them? Thank you!

Hey there! My kid went through the whole college interview process not too long ago, so I can definitely give you some insight. College interviews usually happen after you've submitted your application, and they're a chance for the college to get to know you better and see if you'd be a good fit for their campus. The interviews can be conducted by admissions officers, alumni, or even current students. Just be yourself and show genuine interest in the college. As for preparation, do some research on the college, its programs, and any extracurricular activities you might be interested in. Think about why you want to attend that particular college and be ready to discuss your goals, experiences, and what you can bring to the table. Good luck, and don't stress too much about it!
