Got a call from Cal just now...

<p>I got a call from a Cal student who congratulated me on being admitted and asked me if I had any questions. It was very casual; we had a short conversation about Cal Day and what are going to be my deciding factors in choosing a university. I thought it was very nice, and probably a good ploy to get more students to want to come. I didn't really have any questions since most of mine have been answered through this board, so the girl who called probably was a bit surprised... has anyone else received this call?</p>

<p>hmm, no, but I'm not at home right now, and I gave them my home number.</p>

<p>no call yet</p>

<p>I got a call just now from a girl too about the same things...</p>

<p>wierd, did you guys apply for special scholarships or were you near the top of the admitted class? I don't think EVERY admitted student is getting call....</p>

<p>Many colleges do this; I got a call from USC yesterday, same concept.</p>

<p>I've gotten a call from UCLA, USC and Berkeley. The guy from USC was trash talking the UC's and telling me how wonderful USC is. I hung up on him. The girl from Berkelely was helpful. I wasn't home when UCLA called.</p>

<p>yes, i didnt ask many questions neither, they invited me to senior weekend</p>

<p>I got a call from a girl from Berkeley yesterday too... she was wondering if I had any questions.. she seemed very friendly.</p>

<p>the only phone call I ever got was from Sac State lol</p>

<p>"I thought it was very nice, and probably a good ploy to get more students to want to come."</p>

<p>It's a survey of some sort.. they already admitted a certain number of students and expect a certain number to enroll.</p>
