    I had my Stanford interview last week and it truly is just a casual, fun conversation. I am the nervous type, but I felt great the whole time! The only thing I am worried about is I didn't get to ask any questions since we just kept talking and she had another interview right after.

    So I know that for the USC IYA interview a lot of the questions are specific to what you submitted in your portfolio/pitch video, but did they still ask any of the usual college interview questions (tell us about yourself, why this school/program, what are ur strengths/weaknesses, where do you see yourself in 10 years, etc)???

    • @DyllenNellis
