Editor's notes

  • Aim for Oct. 15, and count backward from it. The early round needs a finished file, and that includes the interview, which only happens after AMU emails you an invitation. Apply a few weeks ahead so the interview fits. Early admits also get the Nov. 1 Presidential Scholarship Weekend invitations and a shot at the $3,000 early deposit award.
  • Prepare for the interview like it's your essay, because here it may be the closest thing to one. AMU's steps list no essay and no letters, so the conversation with your counselor carries the personal side of your file. Know why a Catholic liberal arts university fits you, in your own words.
