what to bring to NUMS interview

Members don't see this ad.

I have an interview at Northwestern in mid-January but did not actually receive the interview letter in the mail from them (it went to my summer address and my old roommate read the good news to me).

Is there anything in particular we need to bring? Transcripts? MCAT scores? Bribes?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks all!

yeah, as with any interview, remember to bring your knee pads. 😉

Along with the knee pads....Northwestern asks that you bring them official transcripts from every college attended and a copy of your MCAT scores. They explained to me that because of AMCAS problems they are verifying all information on their own. If you forget these items they ask that you mail them immediately so that your application will be absolutely complete. They even had me flip through my application file to make sure everything was there. Enjoy Chicago and bring a coat. When I interviewed there, they commented that it was warm at 45 degrees F.

urlacher, Congrats on your interview, and welcome to SDN!! 😀

I didn't apply there, so can't give you any info. Do a search on Northwestern interviews (restrict it to title only or you'll get a list of thousands!), and I'm sure you'll find lots of helpful information. Good luck with your interview!! 🙂

Thanks everybody. Yeah, I know it's cold; I'm from Chicago, hence the username "Urlacher." Not too many Bears fans on SDN, I guess. 🙂

Anyway, thanks for the tips. Now I have to go send money to get the MCAT scores I never received (they went to my premed adviser instead; what a crazy year!)
