Interviews are common for medical school, health professional school, professional psychology program, and some business school applicants. Other graduate or professional schools may occasionally require an admissions interview. If you're required to interview, follow these simple steps to prepare. While many of these resources are pre-med or pre-health focused, you can adapt them for any type of admissions interview.
