I have been recently accepted to Nova, and just got a call from Dr. Zucker, who informed me that they do this with all acceptees to wish them happy holidays and see if they have any questions. I was pleasantly surprised by this, and later, after being asked about how the admissions process was going for me I mentioned that i still had some future offers to consider.....was this a wrong move on my part? this guy was one of the interviewers (although not mine) so im not sure if it negatively impacted my probable matriculation into Nova. Although I have already sent a deposit, I'm paranoid that this might sour them on me as a candidate, and that they might retract acceptance at the first sign of dubious response on my part....someone please tell me im too worked up over admissions.......thanks for your help guys!
 
you'll be fine..and if you decide to attend NSU..come to the class forums and talk to your future classmates 😉

You're too worked up. 🙂 You're okay. As another poster pointed out, they know your have some tough decisions in the months ahead. That's one of the reasons they are calling you. They want you to feel welcome. They want you to know that they are very interested in having you attend, and they hope that their kind gesture may sway you in their direction. It is a nice thing to do, and not an insignificant amount of effort on their part. If you are really concerned, you could send your interviewer a note telling him how nice it was to receive his call and that it once again highlighted how much you like NSUCOM, etc. You're good though. Don't worry, and congratulations on your acceptance(s)!
