Phone calls?

Hi everyone, about 1 week ago a close friend on mine received a call from a school asking where they were ranked on his list of schools he would like to attend. What does this mean?

There has been a lot of discussion about this, so I’m guessing that it probably means that the school is interested. Good luck to your friend!

Thanks for the quick reply! I’m both happy for him but very jealous! The school that called him is my “dream” school :(!

Boo! Hiss! What school is this? What if that school isn’t his first choice but he doesn’t get into his first? Now he’s put in a position of risking his chances or lying. Bad practice. We filled out the app, make a decision independent of where the school ranks on the list or implement early decision. This is just wrong.
