Yes, that is exactly what will happen. The interviewers will not have any information about us and do not have access to our applications. They won't know where we are from, our undergrad GPA's, etc. They will only know our names if we are given name tags. I think they are trying to keep the 50% application and 50% interview scores as objective as possible. Good luck!

MMI is way too intense for me haha
I've interviewed in some snowy states and I was fine with a scarf, gloves, and a nice overcoat. I also had an umbrella but did not really need it. I found there was always somewhere to put things, as well. I'm from a warm place and I don't usually get snow--it was actually really nice (except sometimes it was really warm indoors!).Does anyone have any tips for interview attire in cold weather or possibly snow? My interview is on Sunday and I'm from Texas. If it snows here, everything gets shut down and we stay home so this will be a new experience for me
I normally wear ballet flats to interviews, but I'm guessing flat ankle boots will be more appropriate? Also, will there be a place to hang our coats, gloves etc?
I'd also like to say that I had surgery right before the time I was offered an interview and I actually forgot to register online with all the meds I was on. I thought it was hopeless but I decided to call a week ago and I was offered an interview regardless! They were super understanding and seem like a great school
Thank you everyone and good luck!

I'm interviewing on Saturday.
Just remember that depending on where you are staying in Denver, it can take up to 2 hours to get to FoCo. I'd say if you're up in North Denver maybe 45 minutes? I come from SE Denver and it takes me on average 1.5 hours to get up here.

It is reasonable, but I personally wouldn't recommend it. As someone who makes the drive from Denver to FoCo and back on a weekly basis, the drive can be pretty unpredictable. There have been days where it has taken 3 hours for me to drive from one place to the other because of traffic (and that's on a nice summer day). My car is 4WD and it still has trouble in the snow sometimes, but hopefully the weather will be good this weekend. That's just my personal opinion, though. I'm not the most confident in my driving skills so if I were coming from OOS I would just find a place to stay in FoCo.
Oh! I would say that a sedan would be fine. The drive is basically a straight shot up I-25 and it's pretty easy.
I don't think we're supposed to get any extreme weather this weekend. You'll be 100% fine in a normal car. All the snow we got last week is gone. Driving from Denver's airport to Fort Collins is absolutely the most convenient option, in my experience.
Plus if the weather is bad enough that you truly need a 4WD beast to make the drive from Denver to FoCo they usually shut down the I25 anyway so it would be a moot point.
Got an email earlier today with my interview time and other details. My interview is at 3:15PM.
They may not give you an actual interview time. I know at TAMU they gave us a time that I thought our interviews would start at but there ended up being some nice interview orientation things for about an hour before our actual interview so we "started" later than I thought we would.

As long as you all are there by whatever check in time they gave you, you should be fine!
You're right - I meant check in.
Yeah. I struggle with appreciating the lunch and tours when the interview is looming over my head. That's why, when given the option, I choose one of the earliest interview times.
Seems like they might have gone by last name based on all the other info in the email. Oh well. I'm excited but nervous.
You're right - I meant check in.
We are all interviewing this weekend! I'm in Fort Collins already, my interview check-in is tomorrow at 9:15 !!!
