Colleges Where Interviews are Required or Strongly Recommended (Class of 2023)
With the fall 2018-19 application cycle now in full swing, it's important to keep an eye on interview requirements for the schools on your list—especially if they're looking for evidence of demonstrated interest.
To make this easier for you, we've compiled a list of popular schools where interviews are required or strongly recommended, along with the degree to which the institution considers demonstrated interest as part of the evaluation.
In cases like Hillsdale College where interviews are highly recommended and demonstrated interest is very important, it's a good bet than an interview is worth your time. On the flip side, if interviews are optional and demonstrated interest isn't considered, booking an interview is less critical. The devil is in the details, so to help you figure out your strategy we've also included a link to each listed school's interview policy. Do keep in mind that interview requirements may often vary by major.
