Kuri25:

I had my interview last week and it was pp chill. I spoke with an older professor and it seemed like they just had a book of questions they pick some to ask u abt-tho it was a mix between cut and dry and conversational (i think tho it was because my interviewer was on the older side). The student interview was super chill, had a list of 6 questions they prepared to ask and then t he rest of the time was for me to ask questions - gave me a super real response of the school and made me more interested about possibly attending!

did you receive any behavioral type questions? like "tell me about a time you xyz"

mine lasted 40 minutes. In general though, your interview should be about 40 and 60 minutes depending on how long you take to answer their questions

nope, it was a pretty standard traditional interview with a few behavioral questions so definitely have a few stories prepped beforehand and know your application well
