Round 1 Early morning on-campus MBA Interview at UVA Darden.
Quick check-in, blind interview conducted by a second-year. Followed by class visit and lunch. Really welcoming experience and I thought the interview went well!
Questions:
Since it is a blind interview, the opening question was “Tell me about yourself”, and from there she asked me about specific questions about my stories.
Interview Advice:
For fellow applicants, I would recommend scouring Clear Admit for other interview reports, going through the interview guide on Clear Admit, understanding the UVA Darden website, and speaking with current students / faculty / adcoms via events hosted by the school, webinars, or reaching out to them via email. These learnings really informed my answers, particularly around why Darden.
