The College Office shares advice for the interview process with Class of 2022:
Many of you might be interviewing with your prospective colleges this fall. Some of you may even do so this summer, so, we thought we’d send this to you before the school year ends.
How to arrange an interview, who will interview you, and how the interview will be used, will all vary as per the school in question. Check the websites of your prospective colleges and attend information sessions to find out those details. Regardless, for those institutions that require or recommend interviews, this represents a great opportunity for you to communicate both demonstrated interest and fit to the colleges to which you'll apply, along with the chance for you to learn more about the institution.
The attached pdf from Smith College includes some basic but helpful tips for the college interview process which should still prove helpful, as do the links below. If you'll be interviewing this summer or fall, check them out.

Also, some of those same colleges/organizations we’ve forwarded information about this spring will be hosting virtual webinars on various admissions topics like the college essay, mock admissions committee workshops, and, the interview. U. Rochester is just one example; do feel free to attend events like this something this summer as you’ll likely find them really useful.

ROAM may well offer such workshops this summer or in the early fall, so check their site periodically.
