Regarding my Princeton alumni interview?

Be well dressed and exactly on time.

Alumni interviews are much easier than admissions office interviews. You will probably be asked why you want to go to Princeton and why you should be admitted.

Many alumni consider these events to be semi-social, and even offer tea, which you should accept with pleasure unless you have religious restrictions against it. The alumna wants to enjoy the interview. She will not cross-examine you.

I find it surprising that someone who has the ability of getting into Princeton would turn to Yahoo Answers..... know your history about the Princeton area and the University...know all about Carnegie lake and how and why it was constructed...how about the battle of Princeton?....other than that make sure you connect with the alumni, just smile, play the game, and tell them what they want to hear...too easy....Princeton is awesome by the way, get an apartment somewhere on Nassau you cant go wrong...
