Phone Call from Admissions Office?!

<p>Does anyone know of anyone that really isn't that talented (I'm sorry to be harsh, but I'm really nervous now!) or does not have certain skills(maybe an amazing singer, but not so great actor) that felt that they had a really good audition? Or was asked to do muultiple things? Sorry for the bluntness, II'm just dying here!</p>

<p>Son received a phone call for CMU today...just to asked if my son has any questions. He had two: 1) When would admissions decisions be announced and 2) when would aid decisions be announced. The caller 1) April 15 and 2) a week later.</p>

<p>Wow, not much time for May 1 decision deadlines.</p>

<p>April 15? Hmm</p>

<p>We have other sources that confirmed that decisions will be mailed tomorrow.</p>

<p>CFA letters are going out tomorrow. Aid decisions will follow a few days to a week behind. Other colleges at CMU may mail at a later date. </p>

<p>You can always start checking online with your BIO ID starting the 24th. The decision may be posted by then, (3 days after the mailing of your letter).</p>

<p>It is possible that the answer you got was meant to mean that everyone will have heard one way or another by then, (April 15).</p>

<p>You may want to research threads that are a year old or older. You may find older postings from people who posted that they had been accepted. Check the date of the posting. Then deduce from there, (just a thought for those of you who are holding your breath).</p>

<p>I think I remember posting two years ago when my S was accepted, (CFA). I am almost sure he saw his acceptance online around the 24th of March.</p>

<p>I got called last week too. I really dont get why because the girl was just like, "we are processing your app, and you will know by the 15th" I was like, "ok...." why waste so much money calling? I just dont get it. anyways...whatever we'll see. good luck to everyone</p>

<p>on the cmu website, it says my file was pulled a month ago and neve since, does that mean that i got rejected cuz they don't want to look at my file anymore??</p>

<p>Maybe it was so good they didn't need to look at it again.</p>

<p>soloboe, I think they only do "folder pulled committee read" once for everyone - or at least they only update that on the site once. They read it depending on when you sent your app.</p>

<p>i have only one of those folder pulled committee read thing's too. But a couple weeks ago an 'invisible' thing showed up for like March 7th or something for me but later disappeared the next day. It's like the invisible March 21st thing now. I wonder what that was about.</p>

<p>i c, well best luck to everyone</p>

<p>I got a call today; weird</p>

<p>Well for what it is worth. I got a call from CMU as well last year and I got in. However, my roommate didnt get a call nor did a friend of ours. So it goes both ways. take it for what its worth</p>

<p>Hey I applied to CMU and got a phone call from a girl who goes there.<br>
She asked if I had any questions and wanted to know how I was doing. She also said my letter will be sent out anywhere from now to April 15th. I asked the question all of you did not and are not thinking does this mean anything. I asked does everyone get this phone call. She said that CMU tries to call every applicant and if you are accepted they try to call you again. I agree it is quite odd that a college would call so many applicants if they are not even going to accep them. I guess I'll just have to wait and see if I get in but she said they try to call everyone so make what you want from this.</p>

<p>Do you have room draw tomorrow?</p>

<p>yup i do have room draw tom</p>

<p>Good luck. My S went through it today.</p>

<p>Hey, you current CMUers. Did you receive notice about receiving merit scholarships with your acceptance letter, or in the finaid letter sent later?</p>

<p>My S did not get merit but got a grant among other stuff. I think it comes in the finaid letter.</p>

<p>Wow. I got a call like 5 minutes ago. She just told me that they completed reveiwing the application and sent it out at the beginning of this week. I thought they were going to tell me that I was rejected... When can we check the decision online? tomorrow?</p>

<p>Check online now. If nothing is there try tomorrow. It should be up tomorrow if your letter went out on Monday. The online decision will show 3 days after your letter was mailed.</p>
