So... this is the thrilling behind-the-scenes banter AdCom members partake in when not flipping through applications... Hmmm...
This is generally how they deal with applications

But they would have dressing room monitors who would watch how you solved the problem of too tapered pant legs. LOLSounds like something Northwestern would do.

I was wondering the answer to this question, and it's good to know that you are okay with business casual. I never had a job where I had to wear a suit so I'd prefer to dress how I've normally dressed for interviews and when I used to teach--nice dress or top with pants/skirt. I actually have two dresses that I've only worn once that would be appropriate for a medical school interview. I'm not interested in buying a suit that I'm only going to wear one time, and that I'd feel phony wearing. Yes, I do think one should dress professionally for an interview but I don't think a suit is/should be a requirement.What is proper? I would not be offended if my physician wore a polo shirt and khakis or a skirt and sweater. I don't know when being able to dress as an undertaker became a requirement for medical school admission.

As a matter of my fact, most of my professional dresses DO look like this one!Unless your dress looks like this one, a 'nice dress' without a jacket is not going to be interview appropriate. A suit pretty much is a requirement.

I like the thrift shop idea! I often shop at Nordstrom Rack as well.
