Email to Admissions?

I’m kind of confused on how I should word the emails to admissions to show interest. Am I suppose to update them on my achievements? How should I start the conversation?

Why do you want to write? It’s waiting time right now. You showed your interest by applying.

I was just accepted into Olin ED. Literally all of my stats (SAT, GPA) were slightly below average. I did have some really good EC’s though so that might have also helped. But I think the biggest factor that helped me get in were my email exchanges with my admissions counselor. I sent her an email just telling her how WashU was my first choice, what I could contribute if I was accepted, etc. And I think it worked. WashU takes demonstrated interest highly into account, so do all you can to show not only how much you want to go, but what you want to accomplish while you’re there. With a 17% acceptance rate, simply applying to WashU isn’t enough for most, so really do all you can to stand out to your admissions counselor.
