Interviews
It is rare that U.S. universities are able to interview candidates outside the United States, although business schools or other professional programs occasionally send admissions officers on international recruitment trips to conduct interviews with applicants. International students are not at a disadvantage because they are unable to be interviewed. However, if you are offered the chance to have an interview in your country, or if you can visit a campus in the United States, do not refuse the opportunity; it is a good way to learn more about the school and ask any questions you may have.
