The Bennington interview is a chance for us to get to know you beyond what exists on paper. It’s not just another hoop to jump through, or a list of run-of-the-mill questions to answer, but rather an opportunity for us to have a real conversation about whatever is on your mind. It’s also a chance for you to ask questions and learn more about Bennington. There’s nothing you need to prepare or bring with you – just yourself.
International students - please read! For international students (applicants who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents), interviews will be offered by invitation only each application round. If there is further information we need from you or questions we would like to ask, you may receive an invitation to interview after you submit your completed application. To learn more about Bennington before you apply, please sign up for one of the internationally focused events on our calendar. You should not sign up for an interview on this page.
Interview slots will be added throughout the fall. Please reach out to admissions@bennington.edu with any questions.
