For graduate students, there isn't really a traditional interview. Instead, it's a long application process, which is pretty normal for graduate schools. Make sure your statement of purpose is really good and try to find professors whose research interests match yours. Getting a professor interested in you is super important for getting an offer as a fellow and a scholarship.
