<p>As I noted in my post above, you will fill out a form “request for review” …in which you include competing offers. I sincerely think it helps to first contact and speak directly to someone in admissions…follow up with an email and then send in the form. In that phone call /email you express how CMU is your first choice (if it is).</p>
<p>If you can visit campus-- such a gesture goes even further. Schedule a meeting with Admissions to discuss your finaid package-- but it is NOT a standard part of their process.</p>
<p>There is a form, they do respond. It’s not yet online.</p>
