Interviews
Some U.S. universities and colleges are able to interview candidates outside the United States. Former students of the university (alumni) who happen to reside in a particular country usually conduct interviews. 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 do not turn it down; it is a good opportunity to practice your communication skills, learn more about the school directly from former students, and ask any questions you may have.
