I received an interview invite. Can anyone please tell me if this will be a blind interview or not?

Also, what are the questions asked apart from Introduce yourself, Why MBA, and career goals questions?

I got a skype interview and some questions were based on my resume. Such as why you choose this job although you are not in this major.

Is there any cut off for GRE verbal and AWA?
My verbal score is 149, which is very low.

I guess after they have finalized all admits for the program. Anyways i dont think waitlisted candidates get any form of scholarship. So UConn no longer an option for me....

You still haven't heard from them ? In that case I think I should also start considering other options. About scholarships , you can always apply for them in second semester after getting good grades .

Waitlisted...

When does UConn roll out results for waitlisted candidates?
Any help in relation to the same would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
