How do I arrange to have a local interview?
After you ：（t your freshman application to the Admissions Office, you will be sent a letter acknowledging receipt of your application. In that letter, you will be notified whether a Yale Alumni Schools Committee (ASC) covers your area. Local alumni interviews are conducted by the Yale ASC. If an ASC member is available to meet with you, he/she will contact you to schedule an interview.
What is the role of the alumni interview?
The ASC interview is an opportunity for you to engage in a dialogue with a local Yale alumni representative. Alumni interviewers can be a valuable resource, providing first-hand knowledge of what it is like to live and study at Yale. The interview also allows the Admissions Committee to learn more about you and how you might contribute to the Yale community. If you are offered an interview with an ASC member and have not had an on-campus interview, the Admissions Committee encourages you to meet with your local Yale alumni representative.
My area is not covered by a Yale ASC. What does that mean?
Alumni interviews are conducted by interviewing committees linked to specific high schools. Either your school is not covered by an interviewing committee, or the address you provided suggests that you are not currently living in the area of your high school of record. Please note that it is not pos：（ for us to interview all applicants, and that an interview is not required for admission to Yale.
Is my application jeopardized because I am not offered an interview?
Absolutely not. Please remember that interviews are not required and many of Yale's applicants are not interviewed. The Admissions Committee will base the admissions decision on the other documents presented in your application to Yale.
I have questions about Yale that I would have posed to my alumni interviewer, but I will not have the opportunity to meet with an ASC member. What should I do?
You may email questions about academic, residential or extracurricular life at Yale to [email protected]. A current Yale student will respond to your inquiry.
Can I have an on-campus interview?
On-campus interviews are available to high school seniors from late June through mid-November only. [More information...]
Since my area is not covered by an ASC, can I be interviewed by a different ASC?
Each ASC is charged with interviewing candidates for a specific area. Given the large volume of applications we receive, the resources of our ASCs may be limited, and we cannot reassign you to another ASC
I already had an on-campus interview. Do I also need to interview with a Yale alumnus?
In this case, depending on the resources of the ASC, you may or may not be contacted by an alumni interviewer. If an ASC member does contact you, then you may choose to decline a second interview or you may choose to supplement the on-campus interview with an alumni interview. The choice is yours.
My area is covered by an ASC, but why have I not been contacted for an interview?
You may not be contacted for an alumni interview until a few weeks after we have processed your application. Most Early Action interviews take place in November and the bulk of Regular Decision interviews occur in late January and during the month of February. It is also pos：（ that given the large number of applications, the ASC is not able to interview every candidate in your area. Please remember that interviews are not required and your application will not be jeopardized if you are not offered an interview.
Where will local interview：（e conducted?
When a Yale ASC member calls you to set up an interview, please arrange to meet at a mutually convenient location. Alumni interviews can take place at the ASC member's home or office or at a public location such as a quiet café.作者: 天边外 时间: 2009-10-31 22:07
