What does one wear to a college interview?

Hm, I've never had one! I've only been to colleges that don't do them.

I'd consider "office casual" to be appropriate in most cases, depending on the college. But I really don't know.

hm. i seem to recall wearing a blazer and tie, but you could probably also get away with business dressy (button-down, sweater, slacks, dress shoes). a full suit might be a bit much.

I wore a two-piece skirt set to mine. Blazer and pants might be a sutiable equivalent. A tie would be excessive.

I'd go with the gold standard of "I don't know what to wear" -- kakhis and a button down (make sure it's ironed if it needs to be, and that you have an undershirt on if it's a light color).

Good luck!

A toga, trimmed in Imperial Purple. with a gold laurel set about your hair. Be sure to have slaves scatter rose petals at your feet as you stride along.

Now, if you're not trying for the University of Southern California...

Wear Ayesha's two piece, yeah! :D

Umm, collared shirt (button down or polo) and slacks (or *very* clean jeans) would do for undergrad. Likely the same for grad but skip the jeans. Oh, and comfy dress/walking shoes. No sneakers. White socks are OK.

As for yarmulke... no, not THAT one! The other one! Ye-no!, the one you wear to funerals, not Bar Mitzvahs! ;-)

I was going to say dress shirt, slacks/khakis and a tie, but I guess other people think a tie is a bit much. Personally, I think a jacket is a bit much.

(Well, and I also tend to think guys look dumb in a jacket and dress shirt with no tie, but that's my hang-up).

I know someone mentioned clean jeans, but seriously, no jeans.

I actually think the yin-yang yarmulke could lead to some interesting conversations, but perhaps it is a bit informal. :)
