The interviewers want to know how prepared and rehearsed you are for the realities you'll face in your collegiate experience.

Before your interview, thoroughly research the coursework ahead of you. Examine the financial challenges and how you'll balance your time from your studies to prevent burning out and falling behind. Ask yourself if you foresee any challenges. Share your insights to exhibit the breadth of your knowledge and strike up a conversation. Use this opportunity to tap into their experience and inside knowledge and clarify how close your expectations are to the reality of the situation. Ask them for advice and clarity, and exhibit you are eager to learn, overcome your fears, and move forward in your pursuits.
