How to keep in touch with admission office??

<p>I have heard that keeping in touch with the admissions office is good to show interest for the school. What kinds of things would you write in an email or call about? How early would you start contacting them for the purpose of showing interest? Also, what is a good reason to get in touch with the Dean of Admission so you have personal communication with him/her?</p>

<p>You should probably post this in college admissions, you'd probably get a better response. I would be interested to know myself! :)</p>
