Calling admissions office to reiterate interest Forum

[OscarVeal]

Does anyone have any experiences with this that they can share? Any advice? Specifically, what to say, whom to ask to speak with, etc.

I'm thinking about calling the admissions office at my top-choice school. My application has been complete/under review for several weeks. I also wrote a Why X essay explicitly stating it was my first choice.

Chill and wait. Reiterate interest if waitlisted. We are still quite early in the cycle.

Call them once a week or so, and cheerfully advise them that while you have been admitted to other outstanding law schools such as Villanova, you are not keen to enroll at a law school that has been reprimanded by the ABA for fabricating admissions data or that has published misleading employment information.

This. I would call them once a week or once every other week. Send 1-2 emails in between each call to show your continued interest.

Maybe some flowers or a nice box of chocolates once in a while. Only like every 2 weeks, though. You don't want to overwhelm them.

OP sometime people get in by doing really creative stuff. Maybe send just a short reason of why they should take you to them each morning. Important to be creative & original though. Oh and check for the email address of the actual Dean of Admissions. Make sure you don't send it to the general account as that could get lost in the shuffle. This will show initiative as well. Good luck!

Quality trolling if intentional. If not, still quality trolling.

It doesn't hurt to offer a veiled bribe as well. Deans are always open to sports game tickets or vacation packages.
