A personal interview is highly recommended for first-year and transfer students and is required for Ada Comstock Scholars. This one-to-one conversation allows you to tell us about yourself and to ask specific questions about Smith.

Ada Comstock Scholars

An interview is required for all students applying to the Ada Comstock Scholars Program. On-campus interviews are available on a limited basis. Please consult the office calendar for available dates and times. If you have difficulty scheduling an on-campus interview, please contact the Office of Admission. If distance makes it impossible to visit campus, we can conduct the interview by telephone. We do not offer telephone interviews for applicants living outside the United States. Alumnae interviews are not available for nontraditional students.

Please bring unofficial copies of college transcript(s) to the interview for an informal review.
