Applicant's Advice
"Lock in on your interviews. Prepare extensively and ask thoughtful questions. The interview can be the deciding factor—in this case, AOs noted the applicant was a 'possible candidate for EA' and the strong interview confirmed acceptance. Also, don't underestimate the power of a standout personal essay that shows genuine passion and a fresh perspective on common topics."
