<p>Okay, so last night I got an e-mail from a Wash U professor, the director of a program called The Interdisciplinary Project in the Humanities. He said that the admissions office contacted him about my "deep interest in the humanities," and that I would be a good candidate for the IPH program. He then gave me a brief overview of the project and asked me to e-mail him back about my plans. Additionally, he offered to put me into contact with one of the many students who have gone through this project in the past.</p>
<p>Is this an e-mail that a lot of people get, or am I being targeted specifically? (Obviously I'm not the only one, but I'm asking if this is like all the other spam mail I get.) Is this a sign that I'd be a good candidate for admission into Wash U?</p>
<p>Also, I am deeply interested in the humanities as he was told. However, I am also interested in several other areas of study (which may or may not be loosely related to the humanities). Does anyone happen to know if I would still be able to take other courses or major/minor in something outside the humanities too?</p>
