Is this common for NU

<p>My d received a phone call from a current student at NU wanting to know if she had any questions about the admissions process or the university in general. The student is enrolled in the School of Communication. My d has not yet applied but will apply rd to the School of Communications. We have not had an opportunity to visit but we did attend a regional information session. Is it common for NU to reach out to students before they apply? My d was quite excited to have received this call.</p>

<p>Although I can’t say how common such calls are from NU, I do know that over the past 3-4 months I’ve received many similar calls from students at colleges that I’ve never contacted, asking about my interest in their programs. I think it’s most likely based on PSAT scores or other information forwarded to colleges…</p>

<p>Yeah I also got a call from NU about a month ago before I submitted my early decision application. It was just asking if I am applying there and other basic info.</p>
