In order to do this the right way, take into consideration this general guideline below as the beginning of your mail:
Dear Mr./Ms./Mrs. ____[the interviewer’s last name**]____,
I appreciate taking your time to meet with me on ____[date]____. I greatly enjoyed having a conversation with you and I am so happy that we ______[conversation topic the two of you shared in common and that you enjoyed]______.
Also, I learned much more about [school] through our conversation] and I am very happy to know that [a interesting, useful, or endearing fact about the school]. It was nice to listen to your experiences at [school]. This made the university seem more like a home and community instead.
(If you and the interviewer bonded really well, you can add this as well: “I’ll inform you of the status of my application as time goes on.”)
Again, thank you for the pointers and for creating time to see me.
Sincerely,
[name]
Note that this is simply a general guideline you can employ to write your own distinct thank-you email. If you want your email composed a little differently, you can tap from various resources such as your teachers and parents, the college resource center of your school, the Internet, and so on.
NB: Some interviewers prefer you call them by their first name and would usually let you know during the interview. Consequently, greet your interviewer by starting with “Dear [insert the interviewer’s first name]. If you don’t know whether the interviewer prefers to be addressed by his or her first name, just use the usual “Dear Mr./Ms./Mrs. [the interviewer’s last name].”
