Hey I am looking for someone who went to the on campus interview at WUSTL. I interviewed there via Skype and wanted to ask someone who was there a few questions about their experience on campus. So, if anyone was there and would be kind enough to share, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

I am 30 years old and have a soon to be toddler at home. I will be starting a PhD in the coming year.

From what I have seen online, it seemed like the expected attire was more business casual and not full suits but I could be mistaken. This website ( http://www.howtogetintograduateschool.com/what-to-wear-to-a-graduate-school-interview/ ) for example says not to over dress
