Do you have any questions for us?

What's being tested

Genuine interest in the course, courtesy, and a composed, positive close.

Answer scaffold

A structure to build your own answer on — not a script.

1
Have one or two ready
About learning, teaching, the student experience or an interviewer's own interests — things not easily answered on the website.
2
Keep it brief
One question is plenty; don't interrogate.
3
It's fine to say no
'I think you've covered everything, thank you' is acceptable — gracefully.
4
Close warmly
Thank them for their time.

Example answer, annotated

A strong but not perfect answer. Read the notes to see why it works — then make your own version with your experiences.

"Yes, thank you. I read that students here do a research project¹ in the later years. I was curious — what kinds of projects have students found most rewarding², and do they tend to shape what students go on to do?"

Interviewer answers.

"That's really interesting — thank you. And thank you both for your time today; I've really enjoyed the discussion, especially the kidney question³."

Alternative if nothing comes to mind: "I think the website and today have answered most of my questions, thank you. I've really enjoyed the conversation."

Note 1: “I read that students here do a research project” — Shows prior research and genuine curiosity.
Note 2: “what kinds of projects have students found most rewarding” — Invites the interviewer's perspective rather than a fact from the prospectus.

Practise the follow-ups

Real interviews are won and lost here. Answer each one aloud.

(They may simply answer and close the interview.)
