Should i sent one to everyone I met (Dean, admissions officer, administrative assistant, one other admissions member, and interviewers) or just the interviewers? I had some great conversations with some of the people who were not official interviewers. I'm sure many were unofficial interviewers. Can I send one to each? And if the admissions committee only has one email including the dean and the other staff should I send everyone i met on admissions a note through the same email?
 
That definitely sounds like overkill to me, but that's just my personal opinion. If you're really set on sending thank you notes, I would say it's safe to stick with the interviewers. Tracking down info for everyone you met sounds like a nightmare. If you really really like that sort of thing, I guess you could send them to all those people though. I really don't think it makes a difference in the end. These days, thank you notes are probably the exception, rather than rule.

I would recommend sending a thank you email to your interviewers. That should be enough and it's a nice/polite thing to do 🙂
