<p>My brother received a phone call congratulating him on his acceptance to Wake Forest University from a person who gave her phone number/name if he had any questions. Is this strange?</p>
<p>yea......that is strange</p>
<p>good 4 him tho</p>
<p>omg!!!! Accepted over the phone!! I jst got off the phone w/someone (undergrad volunteer)</p>
<p>WOO! I just got in over the phone as well!</p>
<p>Are anyone of you URM's? My friend who got a call today is, so I was just wondering.</p>
<p>My friend also got a call but none for me yet. URM's = ? Sorry!</p>
<p>I am a URM and I got accepted today too! They invited me to the mosaic weekend and I am definitely going.</p>
<p>i am URM and got accepted today too! this is so exciting! </p>
<p>i thought it was very weird to get accepted over the phone though... i have never heard of a school doing that. </p>
<p>do you guys think it was just URM's accepted over the phone? that would be weird...</p>
<p>What does URM mean?</p>
<p>URM= underrepresented minority</p>
<p>Congratulations to those of you who have been accepted. Sounds like the rest of us will be receiving notification later this week.</p>
<p>I'm asian so if that's a urm at Wake then yes.</p>
<p>ugh, I'm asian but I didn't get a call :/</p>
<p>lame, oh well</p>
<p>Wake does want to promote diversity, so maybe they are trying to be EXTRA nice to the URMs to get them to attend...idk just a possibility</p>
<p>I know a few other schools notified URMs early so they could attend MOSAIC weekend for minority recruitment.</p>
<p>wow, azns underrepresented at wake? sweet..Go azns!!</p>
<p>Wow! Congratulations to everyone who's heard so far, and good luck to everyone on Thursday!! =)</p>
