[quote=Anonymous]Blech. I went to an Ivy and wouldn't interview for them ever. Hated the school, despite the fact that nearly every parent on this board wants their kid to apply. I have not donated money to my school, which may explain why I have not been asked, giving further support to the theory that these alumni interviews are just a way to support alums (make them feel part of the school) and keep opening their wallets. I don't even see how an alumni interview can give a prospective student much current information about the school, especially if the alum has been out a number of years. But they are good practice, and maybe your child will meet some interesting people and have interesting conversations. But alums are deluding themselves if they think the purpose of their interviews is to help the school to anything other than the contents of their bank accounts. [/quote]
