When you get there you sit in a room with the graduate students, then you're called in one at a time for your interview. Interviews are 15 minutes each, three questions. She suggested to make sure you don't talk the entire time because once the time is up you won't have the chance to ask any more questions face to face. Right but what kind of questions are they?

alicecdstudent Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 How did you guys hear back from Emerson about the interviews? I never got emailed about anything, even the portal. Did anyone here hear back from Boston University yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsH Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Hi! Thanks @OverCaffeinated for also answering my question! Best of luck! @alicecdstudent I also didn't get an email and nothing on my portal, but their website says that " Candidates will receive invitations to interview in the first two weeks of February 2016." (http://www.emerson.edu/graduate-admission/apply) so there's still time! Also didn't hear from Boston University yet. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalChi SLP Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 So a friend of mine interviewed last year and is in fact a student at Emerson. They asked her 3 questions (like mentioned earlier on this thread). They were (not verbatim, but the idea was the same) - 1) What are your future goals ? 2) Discuss one of the challenging cases you have seen, and why was it challenging 3) What are your weakness? And in the end they gave her time to ask any further questions she had about the program - she asked about admission decisions and funding options, She suggested we should read about the faculty profiles once we know who is taking our interview. Read about the centre. And be professional and genuine. Hope this helps! slpdee, jennifer.nora, OverCaffeinated and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayaella Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Got my notification about interviewing for Emerson on the 4th! I'm going in person on the 27th I also interviewed last year, and I can back up what the other poster said. You wait in a room with other interview candidates until your turn, then get taken to a room with 2 faculty members. You get about 15 minutes with them and they ask you three questions. Make sure you think of one good question cause you'll only have time for one. I also just found out yesterday that I got an interview at the University of Akron!

hedgiehog Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Hey everyone! I see a lot about Emerson, but since I didn't apply there I figured I would add a different interview to the list! I got an email inviting me to interview at Sacred Heart University yesterday (2/8)! The only options they gave me were Friday, Feb 19th or Saturday, Feb. 20th. Hoping to get a spot in the Saturday interviews, but very excited! I do not know much about their program so I am excited to see everything and meet some of the staff!

OverCaffeinated Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Just a heads up for everyone waiting on BU interviews - spoke to the dept and they said they would let us know by Feb 18th at the latest (argh!), via email, and that they would notify us either way (so even if we didn't get an interview) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't receive a confirmation for my google form for interview type preference though, so I think I'll check up on that tomorrow. Has anyone received a confirmation for the google form?
