<p>Has anyone done anything? I am thinking of calling them. I am mexican american.</p>

<p>I can personally say that both Yale and Penn's MRP both incredible.</p>

<p>I didn't call either, but if you get in, there is a good support line.</p>

<p>Thank you. I sent you a PM...</p>

<p>I assume that I am connected with the minority program if I am accepted...</p>

<p>Correct. PM replied!</p>

<p>Wow, thanks! Yale really seems to <em>want</em> us... :D</p>

<p>boo..
i didn't get any phone calls from undergrads in April... (i'm asian-american)</p>

<p>I've been contacted by the Multicultural Recruitment Program at Yale, too, with postcards and e-mails...my only question is, if the MRP has contacted us, does that mean that we have a pretty good chance of admission?</p>

<p>Janderoo, Im black, and I didnt get any phones calls after I got in either.</p>

<p>Before we apply, does this MRP mainly contact people in the Northeast? I was looking at the site, and it seems as though their open house is basically only for people in the NE? That makes sense, but I'm just curious, since I live in Florida, and have only gotten the usual mail and application from Yale.</p>

<p>I'm from the Northeast, they contacted me, and I got in. However, I don't really think there was a correlation b/c I never really got back to them; I'm still not entirely clear what the whole thing is about.</p>

<p>Buuuuut...if they did contact you I would recommend that you get back to them, if only to let them know that you show interest etc, etc.</p>

<p>galgrl24, where do you live in Florida? are you hispanic?</p>

<p>How does MRP choose who to contact? Off PSAT scores? Grades? Recs? What?</p>

<p>I had all three and they didnt talk to me....</p>
