  1. I don't know anything about the program; however, I'm extremely familiar with the campus and the surrounding areas. I love the Claremont College campus. It's adorable and in a lovely little area. It's walking distance from a ton of little restaurants and shops. I *highly* recommend eating at Viva Madrid at some point-- delicious tapas and the best crème brûlée I've ever had. Apartments are relatively inexpensive compared to LA. However, depending on where you're coming from, rent might seem a bit expensive to you. It's very residential, pretty, and peaceful. It might be an adjustment if you're used to city life. There isn't much to do in Claremont. The shops and restaurants are cute and there is a nice little movie theater but there's not much beyond that. However, you are somewhat close to other cities/ attractions. Claremont is about 45+ mins from downtown Los Angeles by car (Claremont to LA can be horrific so definitely choose your travel times wisely). You'll also be a short drive from the mountains (lovely hiking trails for the summer and possibly some snow during the winter) and ~1-1.5 hours from the beach. Let me know if you have any questions about the area! I would be more than happy to help
  2. Thank you SO much to everyone who responded with Thank you all so much for your suggestions and advice! I really appreciate it. You are all extremely helpful!
  3. Sorry to double post in this thread. I just have one quick question... I'm from SoCal and I'm interviewing at a major school on the East Coast. I have absolutely no idea what to wear in the cold and/or snow. Specifically, I have no idea what type of shoe to wear. Any suggestions?
  4. Where in California? Southern California is very casual. I wore a pair of black tapered trousers, a button up blouse, a black sweater, and flats. Fairly casual but on par with everyone else interviewing. No one wore suits and only a one or two girls bothered with heels.
  5. Will the UCLA social psych posters please email me your POIs? I still haven't heard back and it's killing me Thank you!!
