Meeting with Faculty/ Admissions

by highflier_2000 » Sat Mar 19, 2011 1:56 pm
What should a prospective applicant wear when they have a scheduled tour/ appointment with the faculty or admissions director ?

Please note this is not an interview.. but a scheduled campus visit... and an individual tour

Thank You...

I am not sure if I should dress up super formal.. beacuse I am meeting with admissions and every impression counts or just go business casual ?

Hey,

I wrote a blog post about this awhile back. I hope this helps:

That's what I would recommend. I visited 4 schools without interviews and was in business casual clothing each time.
