Hi All,

As you know, there are schools that do NOT want us calling them about status updates, etc... so in the interests of preventing others from making complete fools of themselves let's make a list of these schools.

Thanks!

OHSU ... really? They told me my post-interview decision over the phone last year.

Maybe that's the case post- interview. I'm actually referring to per-interview so their policy might be a little different. Any thoughts?

Stanford, for-get it. You get voicemail, someone who works down the hall, or someone in the office who asks: "why are you calling us? have you looked on the website?!"

NYU: heavy accents, unfriendly, student worker run and strangely dressed.

Penn State...

"Accordingly, the time necessary to process our many applications means that your application will not be reviewed immediately. We therefore request that you refrain from calling our office for your application status. This will enable us to process your application in the timeliest manner possible."

OHSU has a secret phone number that puts you in contact with a real person who will tell you about your application.

After you've interviewed, UCSF does not want you calling them (i don't know about before, they just told us this at the interview.)
