Ok this might be a silly question, but... I have my first interviews coming up at LECOM-Erie, LMU-DCOM, and LECOM-Bradenton, in that order 🙂 (and im soooo excited!!) My dad and I are making a road trip out of it, yay!!! Anyway, how do interviews work if he is with me. Obviously, I know he cant sit in on the actual interview, but what about the other stuff, like tours and financial aid, etc.? Does anyone besides the people interviewing ever sit in on that stuff or would I look stand out having my dad with me??? Just wondering.... Thanks!

He can attend most of the day with you at DCOM. I don't know about LECOM. Good luck!:luck:
 
The admissions guy at DCOM told me that they would like me to bring my wife or a friend, if I wanted. They are cool with that stuff. Congrats on the interviews. DCOM is a cool place and I hope the interview goes great for you.🙂

DCOM said they can hang out and listen to everything with you...except the interview itself.

I interviewed at Erie a week ago and I brought my father along. Meaning along to Erie not to LECOM. He went around Erie and the hotel we stayed at until I finished. I didn't see anyone at Erie with their parents or SO. Good luck on your interview!
 
Thanks for responding everyone! My interview at LECOM- Erie is December 18th.
