Interviewing for a Health Program

Congratulations...you've made it to the interview! Just like the other elements of your application, the interview plays an important role of the admissions process to a health professional program.

The admissions committee will use the interview to find out more about who you are as a person. It will give them an opportunity to meet you in person and to ask you questions about your application and personal statement.

Even if you are familiar with the interviewing process, this online, non-credit, short course will help you better understand this important step in your application to a health professional program and give you strategies to help you prepare.

Learn what kind of questions to prepare for and ideas on how you can structure your answers. This online short course even provides a way for you to practice before the big day!
