I was recently invited to interview at UMass Med School in Worcester. Being a California native, I have no idea how to dress for the cold weather/snow and am looking for some advice/answers to some questions I have: 1) Will there actually be snow/ice or am I stressing for no reason? 2) Any advice for layering/staying warm without getting too frumpy/bulky? I was planning on wearing outerwear (maybe a peacoat?) over a blazer and whatever's underneath. Is that going to be too much? I'm just imagining having to hold a coat during tours/interviews and that already seems like a hassle. 3) The location for dinner on Thursday night seems pretty fancy (hotel/restaurant website says "attire is casual or business"), but seeing as it's a dinner with the students of the program, how dressy should my outfit be? I realize the note at the top of the schedule (screenshot attached) says that business casual is appropriate for the entire weekend, but I don't want to seem overdressed or like I'm "trying too hard." Are dark wash jeans, boots, a nice shirt/blouse, cardigan, and a blazer appropriate? Or are the jeans too casual?
