Contacting Regional Admissions Officers

<p>Hey, a few weeks ago I went to a Yale Information Event in Seattle and talked with my regional admissions advisor. She was really informative and so now I'm wondering: how do you get in touch with your regional admissions person? I'd really like to call/email her and ask her a few things.</p>

<p>Any advice on how to do this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!</p>

it has contact info for all admissions officers</p>

<p>Thanks so much. Do you know if the admissions officers are okay with getting emails and stuff? I mean, do they think you're being pushy or anything, or do they try to help? I've always wondered about that.</p>

<p>I think an admissions officer would be annoyed if an applicant contacted him or her with a question that could be answered by looking at Yale's website. If you have an unusual and specific question, I think it's OK. If you're calling to ask if Yale has a certain major, whether you can get college credit for AP classes, or about the different student publications on campus, don't bother. I would also avoid asking an admissions officer anything that resembles a "chances" question.</p>

<p>As you know, the admissions officers are on the road right now giving presentations in their regions, so don't expect an immediate reply if you do email or call.</p>

<p>i emailed my regional yale person a month ago and she hasnt yet responded. i had a very general question (about GPA) that wasn't answered on the website. interestingly, i sent the same email to the stanford admissions office as a whole (no regional individuals) and got an excellent response a few weeks later</p>

<p>ask the question about GPA here, and I'm sure someone'll be able to answer it.</p>

<p>Also, that list is not up-to-date, because I know for sure that one person on it is no longer in the admissions office.</p>

<p>actually, no. i asked the GPA question on here multiple times. and my question was, does stanford count +/- grades when recalculating GPA? the answer was no. on CC, people (including xiggi) told me the answer was yes. good thing i went to the official source.</p>
