Alumni Interviewing for Princeton / Spring Tiger Team Day on Feb. 21st
DMV Tigers,
The Princeton Alumni Schools Committee is busy conducting interviews for Regular Decision applicants -- and we need your help! Volunteers aid Princeton's Admission Office by interviewing applicants for the Class of 2030 and act as ambassadors to Old Nassau. Last year our dedicated alumni interviewed more than a thousand applicants in the DMV region and we expect another record-setting pool of applicants this year. We can really use your help, whether you can commit to interviewing 1, 3 or 10 applicants this year.
Interested in getting involved? Here's what you need to know:
- All alums can interview -- undergrad or graduate, recent or not so recent. (The only exception: if your child or grandchild is applying to Princeton this year, please sit this year out.)
- Regular Decision interviews are taking place between now and the end of February -- the goal is for all reports to be submitted by Feb. 21st.
- Interviewing an applicant takes approximately 1 hour. You meet the prospective student, have a 30-45 minute conversation, and then submit your feedback electronically through the Admissions website.
- Interviews can be conducted in person or virtually via Zoom.
How do I sign up? If you did not not already do so in the Fall, please use these links
- First, use the appropriate link below to sign up for the part of the DMV region in which you would like to interview and let us know your availability.
- Second, use your TigerNet credentials to log on to the ASC website and agree to the guidelines for ASC interviewing (which will include watching a short tutorial video if you have not interviewed within the last few years).
Are you interested in participating in our Tiger Team Day on Saturday, Feb. 21? A few dozen alums will gather in person at an office in downtown DC -- we'll bring the applicants to you! Volunteers commit to conducting 3 interviews over 3 hrs, in either the morning or afternoon. All you have to do is show up. You'll inevitably run into a classmate you haven't seen in too long, and we'll keep you well-fed during the day. Interested? Email David Baumgarten '06 (dbaumgar@gmail.com).
Questions? Reach out to your regional chairs listed below.
