Candidates at Vanderbilt are invited to two separate interviews, one long and one short, each being with different faculty members. Before your interview you will be matched with your interviewers and given either a morning or afternoon session. Sessions will last for around six hours in total, consisting of welcome lectures, a lunch break, student experience session and the interviews themselves. Both interviews are conducted by Vanderbilt professors – the short interview will last for 30 minutes, and is ‘closed file.’ The longer interview is one hour, and the interviewer will have access to your entire application.
