Request an Alumni Interview

Personal interviews are not a required part of the Sarah Lawrence application process, but they can provide an opportunity for students to talk individually with an admission representative to learn more about the College. You should think of the interview not as a trial to be endured but as an opportunity to interview us—to ask the questions you want to ask, to meet personally with someone who knows the College well, and to get a sense of how your needs and interests would be met by Sarah Lawrence. Current seniors or admission staff conduct interviews on campus, while our alumni conduct off-campus interviews. Please note that if you are unable to interview on campus or meet with an alumni interviewer, this will not be held against you in the admission process.

Request an Alumni Interview (seniors and transfers)

The Sarah Lawrence College admission office is pleased to offer prospective students the chance to interview with trained SLC alumni volunteers in their home area. Alumni interviews are available from September through mid-February for first-year applicants and from September through March for transfer applicants. While we will try to accommodate your request, alumni interviews are not guaranteed.

If you are interested, please fill out the Alumni Interview Request form and we will contact you soon. If you have any questions or concerns about this process, please contact R. Aiden Bussey, Alumni Program Coordinator, at rbussey@sarahlawrence.edu.
