Is an interview required at Providence College?

I've been considering applying to Providence College, but I'm unsure if an interview is required. Can anyone share if it's a mandatory part of the application or just recommended?

For the majority of applicants to Providence College, interviews are not required as part of the admissions process. They are offered as an additional opportunity for students to learn more about Providence and express their interest in the institution, but they are actually not evaluated in admissions decisions at all - they are purely informational.

The one exception is students with unusual circumstances, such as those who graduated from high school in less than four years. Such students are indeed required to interview with the Office of Admission.

If you're a traditional applicant, you can certainly look into interviewing if you'd like to learn more about Providence College, there's definitely no need to stress! And even if you're a non-traditional applicant, don't panic - the admissions committee just wants to make sure they have a comprehensive understanding of who you are as an applicant.
