"What is your favorite holiday, and why?" "Give an example of a significant historical event and how it is significant today?" Just dont get stressed and do the best you can. Then a faculty member will come down and take you to a room to interview you. (I had to wait 45 minutes after doing my writing sample for the faculty memeber to show up). After an approx 30 minute interview the faculty memeber takes you on a tour and then you are free to go. " Report Response
