Remember that people like to talk about what they know! When you have insightful questions prepared, you are setting the stage for the interviewers to tell you many important and helpful details about their process and educational facility.
Keep the majority of your questions academically related. Asking too much about the school's culture, social life, and extra-curricular activities may cause you to appear unfocused.
Here are some ideas:
- Ask if they could give you any piece of advice
- See if there is anything in your application or anything that you said in the interview that you could clarify
- Ask the most important thing you should know about your first week at the University of Tennessee
- Ask about some of the exciting opportunities you could take advantage of should you attend the University of Tennessee
- See what the interviewers feel is a unique offering at the University of Tennessee compared to others in the area
