I have several waitlist questions:
1) I have been told sometimes sending a letter of update/interest/intent to the dean is more "useful" than sending it to the admissions committee. Would it be safe to address it directly to the dean, send it directly to the dean, and then cc'ing the adcoms so they can add it to my file?
Alternatively, would it work if I sent a letter of update to the adcoms and then the letter of intent/interest to the dean directly?
2) If I call a school regarding making an appointment to speak with the dean (by telephone), and they just say to email the admissions committee with whatever you're going to say, what should I do at that point? Would it be looked upon negatively if I go ahead and email the dean directly with a telephone appointment, and then call him directly if he doesn't reply?
