How much does Vanderbilt Interview Matter?
I contacted the interviewer in my region three times. I e-mailed him three times and she never responded. The other nearest interviewer is about 2-3 hours away from my town, and my dad is not really that pumped up about driving me that far. The thing is that I am an international student (although I do live in the U.S. it’s technically as if I’m applying from a foreign country), and I’m not sure how much an interview really weighs on an application. I know that it’s optional, but internationals usually find it a lot harder to get into schools (at least from what I’ve heard), and I don’t know if the weight they put on interviews is the same for citizens and internationals. Should I request an interview from another person? Thanks!
