<p>I tried emailing a college to get some more information.
I tried sending emails to different adcom members and also the main department, many times!!
NONE OF THEM ANSWERED!!
I am international so making a phone call would be quite expensive.</p>
<p>the college is Hope college.........now is this college dead or what!!!
It wont answer a single mail!!!!!!!!
ANy ideas on how to get in touch with this place.</p>
<p>Well, I can tell you that some departments at the college certainly aren't dead. I find your post so ironic since Hope College has been THE MOST AGGRESSIVE college when it comes to football recruiting. My son and a few of his teammates have been receiving snail mail, e-mails, phone calls, you name it, on a weekly basis for many months now. It looks like it's either feast or famine where Hope College is concerned! I assume you saw the link on their homepage for international students? Lots of information there. For what it's worth, I live in Michigan and know several kids who attend Hope. They all seem to love it and it's considered a very good LAC. When the weather is nice, it's just a few minutes away from Lake Michigan beaches (btw, the Great Lakes are like being near the ocean). I believe you can apply up until Feb. 15th to be considered for merit scholarships.</p>
<p>okay.......then why arent the answering to any of my freakin mails!!!!</p>
<p>Perhaps they are on break...or are just returning from break. DD had emailed folks at one school a couple of weeks ago. She got replies at the end of last week. The school was closed for the holiday/winter break.</p>
<p>Apparently, you're asking me that question? I don't have the slightest idea how their admissions office operates. I only know what I provided you in my post.</p>
<p>ok...i am talking like already a month or so!!</p>
<p>According to their website, fall semester ended 12/16 and classes just resumed this past Tuesday on 1/10.</p>
