So, I recently got my interview (yay!) for Cambridge, but I'm not sure how to dress and appear on the interview day.
Also, I currently have a beard and quarantine hair (lmao), so would you recommend to get my hair short (for formal appearence), and have a cleanshave (as often is the interview stereotype)?
EDIT: Would a short stubble work? Rather than cleanshave? Any idea?

If it were me I'd rock up in a full suit with a haircut and a clean shave. You only get one opportunity to make a first impression.

It's online, right? So PJ bottoms & a suit jacket w/ a crisp white button-down shirt & tie ;p
Nah just jk about the bottoms - but I'd definitely dress formal & professional. Businessman type vibe.
And yeah, idk if you need to cut your hair but definitely make it look neat - shave though!

When they say it doesn't matter, it *really* doesn't! Perhaps a little bit more for like Medicine and maybe Law but like as long as you are presentable and not wearing a shirt with an offensive slogan or anything you'll be absolutely fine. They're interested in what's in your head, not what you look like.
Tbh a lot of the academics don't dress that smartly themselves haha. Smart casual vibes is average.
