admissions interview
An admissions interview is a conversation between a prospective student and an institution's representative, used to assess the applicant’s background, motivations, and fit for the program. It provides an opportunity for the applicant to showcase their interests, skills, and goals, while the interviewer evaluates qualities like communication skills, enthusiasm, and readiness. The interview often complements application materials, helping the institution determine if the candidate aligns with their values and can succeed in their environment. It is a professional exchange designed to ensure mutual understanding and informed decision-making.
