KNOW ABOUT THE SCHOOL
Interviewers are impressed if you go beyond the Web site and the literature to know about their schools. If possible, visit the campus, attend a class, and speak with students, faculty, and alumni before the interview. Firsthand research will inspire not only impressive questions for the admissions office, but also pointedly useful ones for yourself, so that ultimately you can choose the best school for you.

GO THROUGH YOUR APPLICATION
A school's on-paper questions usually indicate where its admissions department's interests lie. Also, look over your answers, too. Consistency between what you write and what you say is desirable. But adding new information that will expand their sense of you is equally important.

ADDITIONAL DON'TS
Dress according to the occasion, make eye contact; arrive on time; bring your resume; and send a brief thank you note afterwards.
