What are Boston University's undergraduate interview opportunities like?

I'm interested in applying to Boston University and heard that interviews might be part of the process. Can anyone share what the undergraduate interview options are and how they might affect my application? Any personal experiences would be super helpful!

Boston University technically does not conduct preset admissions interviews as part of its undergraduate application process. Instead, what they have is an interview-like program called the "My College Choices" session.

The "My College Choices" sessions are essentially a group Q&A session with an Admissions Representative over Zoom. They allow you to ask specific questions about BU, show your interest in the school, and discuss your goals and aspirations.

You should sign up for one of these sessions if you're interested in BU and want to learn more about the university from an official representative. However, don't worry about not being able to secure a place in these sessions or if these don't apply to you. They are informative and don't factor into your application decision.

Additionally, the university also frequently hosts informational webinars and virtual events that can similarly allow you to engage with and learn more about the institution and its offerings.

As always, demonstrating your interest in BU through your application essays is an effective way to convey your engagement and enthusiasm, so focusing on a thoughtful, tailored response can be quite impactful.

Remember, conducting thorough research on the university's programs, culture, and opportunities can be useful when crafting your application and will show your serious interest in the school. Reach out to the admissions office if you have any specific questions about the process. Good luck with your application!
