"one interview with a first year student, about 40 minutes, questions provided for student interviewer by admissions office. the student interview is completely closed file and was rather relaxed. this was followed by a 45-60 minute faculty interview, which is almost closed, although they do get to see your personal statement. also, fairly relaxed. then i had a 15 minute interview with the assistant dean of admission. the last interview is open-file, and for the most part seemed to be more so the school could gauge how interested you were in pitt (he asked me questions such as, how many schools did you apply to? how many interviews do you have?). all in all, while long, the interviews were very relaxed, and of the other propsective students who were there with me that day that i spoke with afterwards, all had similar experiences.
