mimoma Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Hi there, I just got an invitation for an interview at Columbia (MFA New Genres) and I was wondering whether there is somebody out there who has some good tips on preparing for it? I would appreciate if you could share your experience .. What kind of questions will be asked? How long will the interview be? Is everyone who applies invited for an interview or a selected amount of people? Soooo excited. Thank you.

shark Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Anyone else got an interview at Columbia? did they email you or call?
mimoma Posted March 5, 2011 Author Posted March 5, 2011 they emailed me and gave me some choices of dates for the interview. they couldn't say whether it will be a phone or skype interview, since I am an international applicant (i live in the UK).
