I recieved my interview email Friday and scheduled it for March 1. Just wondering if there will be any open spots still available in the program (seeing lots of acceptance into the program so far on here). Congrats, by the way :) They are admitting 35-40 students! There’s only been two acceptances on here so far and probably a couple of more people but defiantly not the majority of people I’m sure there will be spots open for the March interview Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA778 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Hey guys, I do know from asking around, that a friend of a friend has been wait-listed. I obviously don't know what her portfolio looks like, but they aren't just accepting people as soon as they interview for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ERPA19 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 In the January 11th interview they had said something about emailing everyone who came. For those who attended the January 3rd interview, did you receive an email after the interview? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any tips for the interview? I'm glad it seems like the interviews are after the tour so we have some time to warm up to the school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One group interviews while the other tours and then they switch. There is also a 30 minutes essay with the group that is touring. There is a long presentation about Lipscomb and tuition in the morning so that should give you time to warm-up to the school. They are so so nice so you probably do not need to tour first to feel welcomed at Lipsomb. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NatePA Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I would highly recommend wearing a suit. Ive been on three interviews so far and every single male has worn one, including the faculty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya their dress code is business casual so dressing as nice as possible would help! For girls don’t feel like you have to wear a suit, I wore a dress, received a compliment from a faculty member and got in, so just as long as you are professional looking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think a professional dress and blazer over would be okay for Lipscomb?

The female faculty were also dressed the same way as I was if that helps at all. And no problem I’m happy to help! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
