The interviews were scheduled by a representative from the school. It was 30 minutes. Students had to write a quick essay (writing sample). They had a discussion with the student then with the parents.

I'll add that having a top GPA did not guarantee you an interview. They considered your essay (included with application - not the on the spot writing sample) and recommendations to make a determination if you would be granted an interview.

Yes, the process was far more intense than SWW.

Good luck to her! My son really liked the people on the interview and is excited to attend in the Fall. And we just discovered they have a new building!
