Hi guys!

I know that people are against calling the admissions offices but has anyone called? I am debating calling and I wanted to know if they were receptive to your call or if they were just annoyed you called. I have a few schools I havent heard back from that I would really like to have an opportunity to interview at.

There are probably ~7,000 applicants with the same sentiment.

I have called about 3 schools and they have all been so helpful, kind, and well-wishing of my future. It's one thing to call just once and politely inquire about your app status or whatever it is you need, but it's another thing to call multiple times asking questions they can't answer.

Edit: I called one school about my app status and they gave me an interview the next day. Another actually messed up and forgot to send my app complete email, and I got an interview a few days later after calling that to their attention.
