When buying t-bills through treasury direct, does it tell you the Interest rate? It tells me to choose no. Of weeks, add the amount to invest and source and nothing else.

No -- you are buying straight from the source, so the rate is set through public auction. The Treasury sells the securities through a regular auction, and the result of that auction sets the rate, yield, or discount.

As a regular buyer on TreasuryDirect, you are submitting a noncompetitive bid, by which you accept the highest rate set at the auction.
