I will attend an interview organised by my uni soon. They use this as a criteria to select people to go on a Spanish language exchange trip. What kind of questions should I expect them to ask?
>Tell me about yourself.
>Why do you want to go to Spain?
>Why do you think you're the right candidate and not the other student(s)?
>What do you hope to learn in Spain that you couldn't learn here?
>[presuming this is uni]Which courses will you take, and how will they contribute to your degree back home?
There's probably a shitton of other questions I can't come up with right now.

Should I reveal the fact that I did a lot of self-learning by myself? I only took a beginner course at uni (I'm a freshman), but I did a lot of self-learning by myself. My Spanish friend can understand my text messages although my Spanish probably looks weird as hell to him. I also learned to roll my Rs. I am thinking about minoring in Spanish just for fun (it is unrelated to my major).

Sure. Use that as an argument for how ambitious & self-driven you are.
I'm not American so I have no idea how the major-minor system works. Do you believe you are currently at a level where you could follow university level conversations?

I'm not American as well.
>Do you believe you are currently at a level where you could follow university level conversations?
Of course not, I only started learning Spanish half a year ago.

Wait, then I'm confused. Is this an Erasmus agreement? Will you be taking university courses in Spain? Is this one of those university-organised two-week trips?

Oh, in that case everything is plum as peaches. Appear eager for the opportunity, give competent and professional answers to their questions (which won't be very hard, I shouldn't think).
