💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Why did your family come to the United States?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Watched the DVD, read the DMS brochure and my application several times, read several feedbacks on this website.

What was the most difficult question?

Why did your family come to the United States?

What impressed you positively?

Dartmouth has a collegial environment fostered by the tight-knit student community. The faculty tries to remember everyone's names by posting their pictures on the bulletin board. They do an excellent job in teaching.

What impressed you negatively?

I visited during the coldest time of the year. The place looks very isolated. A good car is a must because stores are quite a distance away and weather conditions aren't great. First-year students seem to have drowned from their studies.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There's not much to do in NH. The cost of living/tuition is crazy.
