Some days ago I got an email from Wake Forest. WF invited me to a video interview....Part of the email is as follows:
Thank you for your recent application to Wake Forest University School of Law. Here at Wake Law we are fortunate to have a talented and diverse student body who bring a wealth of talent and perspective to the classroom and our community. We've begun the review process for your application. Of course, the limitations of a law school application sometimes prevent us from gaining adequate insight to discern whether our program is just the right fit for any given applicant. We want to know more about you, so we are asking you to submit an online interview using an innovative interface we've recently implemented.
Honestly, I can't find anything on the internet about this interview , so I have to ask TLSers for help. Is there any one knowing something about this online (video) interview? Any feedback would be appreciated!!!

No one has ever received the interview invitation from Wake Forest? The reason why I got such an email is because I'm a foreigner??

The reason there is not a lot on it is because its new this year. No, its not just going to foreigners, from what I understand it goes to people who aren't auto admits or auto denies, the gray area candidates. If you look through the Wake Forest thread there is plenty of discussion on it, including posts from the Dean of Admissions.

I was asked to do an interview and I have heard that a lot of other people have too. I did the interview and less than 2 weeks later I was accepted. So, don't worry about it, it shows they are at least interested in you.

Hey, thank you so much for your feedback. Could you tell me what questions were you asked in the interview?

I did that interview too. But that was two months ago... All I remember is that they ask me : (1) why do you want to study in WFU; (2) why do you hope to practice in law and; (3) tell us about yourself. I thing that's all and I received their offer about 3 weeks later.
BTW, do you want to go WFU? I am considering but yet not decide.
