None of them required an interview. Some offered an optional interview, which I would do if I was particularly interested in a college, but it was by no means required.
- chrisseaton 7y agoIf the admissions system is easy and you don't need to physically visit or interview to apply to a college, why doesn't everyone literally apply to all colleges to cast the net as wide as possible? If everyone did that it'd turn the system around and have the colleges bidding for and trying to attract you. In the UK they only let you apply to some small number of colleges (universities), and only let you apply to one elite college.
- astura 7y agoIt costs money for each school you apply to. The fee is presumably to discourage this behavior.

- smrk007 7y agoYou still have to pay an administrative fee to apply (Usually around $70). So, you COULD apply to all the colleges, but then you would have to pay thousands of dollars in admissions fees. You can sometimes get the fee waived if you are below some income level, so maybe there's something to that. The only time barrier really is application essays.
- mrep 7y agoEach application costs money though (about $50 a piece when I was applying)
- alteria 7y agoLike other mention, it costs a good chunk of money, but also you may have to write supplemental statements for each school depending on the application system they use.
