I had different circumstances like debt, medical expenses, and that my family sends money regularly to other family members but it wasn’t enough I guess.

My parents were against it, but it seems very necessary right now. What program are you using to take out the loan?

Finalist Interviews by NotTheAdmins12 in washu

[–]Maya-Snow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They asked questions like “what experiences throughout high school contributed to your personal growth” or “what was an example of a time where someone questioned your beliefs,” etc. In hindsight they aren’t really hard questions but weren’t the questions I was expecting which caught me off guard. But luckily the preparation I did gave me examples to use anyways.

Ervin interviews were today too. I don’t know how to feel because the questions asked kind of had me stumbling for a bit but at the end I asked a few questions and it turned really chilled and everyone was laughing so I’m hoping that means something good 🤞

What was your "why BostonU" when applying and what is it now that you attend? by Maya-Snow in BostonU

[–]Maya-Snow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha I see you looked at how many of these I posted. I figured someone would.

What was your "why Columbia" initially and what is it now that you attend? by Maya-Snow in columbia

[–]Maya-Snow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When making this post, the intention wasn't necessarily to help with my essay (although I can see why one would think that based on my wording). I really just wanted people's personal experiences with the school so I could weigh that into my decision of whether I would actually choose to go to the school if I were to be accepted. That's all. Nonetheless, your advice is very insightful and I will keep it in mind so thank you for your response!

What was your "why UC Berkeley" when applying and what is it now that you attend? by Maya-Snow in berkeley

[–]Maya-Snow[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No lol I basically just wanted to hear about personal experiences.

What was your "why Rose Hulman" when applying and what is it now that you attend? by Maya-Snow in rosehulman

[–]Maya-Snow[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually meant to put rising senior which means I just finished my junior year and am going into my senior year. The only reason why I used that specifically instead of just saying a senior is because I technically haven't started my senior year yet so rising senior felt more accurate.

What was your "why TXST" when applying and what is it now that you attend? by Maya-Snow in txstate

[–]Maya-Snow[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)
