Offered Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. eastern time, each program will feature an introduction from Admissions, an overview of academic life from faculty, and a panel discussion with current students.

Interviews
Union encourages an interview as part of the application process. An interview enhances your application by showing your interest in Union and allowing us to hear more about your academic and extracurricular pursuits. It is also an opportunity for you to ask questions of us and to hear about the exciting experiences that await you at Union College.
In the fall, interviews are typically conducted by a senior intern–one of 12 student leaders in their final year at Union who is eager to learn about you and share their Union story.
Virtual interviews are available for high school seniors through January. Appointments are offered Monday-Friday and registration is available up to 48 hours in advance. High school junior interviews will open May 1.
