Hi, I went to their on-campus interview last month. In my opinion, it is better to schedule class and campus visit before the interview, so that you will have something unique to say about the school (vs. only things you've learned from websites during the interview.
If you have more questions, feel free to contact me. Good luck.
GATE loan is offered to all students and requires no cosigner. It is backed by the Darden Foundation.
To my knowledge, Darden offers off-campus interview to international students, but that will be by invitation only. The adcomm will travel to China next March to conduct the interview.
