Abstract
Summary. Undergraduate applicants for a university degree course in psychology received conditional offers of places having undergone one of four different introductions to the department ranging from a group open day to a stressful individual interview with two admissions tutors. The prediction that as interviews became more stressful so the acceptance rate of conditional offers would increase was not confirmed. Instead, evidence suggested that an applicant's initial preference ranking of the five universities to which he had applied remained the salient factor influencing his subsequent decisions about accepting offers of places.
