So I have an interview coming up in a couple weeks and was wondering if there was anything I needed to bring? I was planning to bring a notepad just to take general notes on their presentations but is there any papers I should bring such as transcripts or anything of that nature? I am sure they have everything they need though.. Thank you in advance!

I would take a portfolion with a note pad and a pen and then have questions to ask written down along with notes on the school so you can review before you go to interview
Most of the times the school will tell you what you need to bring, i.e. a 2x2 photo of yourself, mail your transcripts in, etc.
So if they didn't say anything, I agree with the poster above -- bring a portfolio containing a pad and pen to not only write notes and questions in, but to contain any papers they may give you on the day of the interview.
Good luck
Oh and bring some water and maybe a snack or two. They sound like all day events, and if you are anything like me, I need to eat every 2 hours.. haha

I just wanted to second the portfolio and water route. At my last interview, someone actually asked for a drink of my water because they were so nervous and had terrible dry mouth (I did know the person from Pre-Dental events at my university, but my point is that you may get some bad dry mouth).
