<p>Where can I find who is the admissions officer in charge of my region (and thus is going to be reading my application)? I've looked over their website but couldn't find anything.</p>
<p>BTW I live in Ohio.</p>
<p>Where did you hear that CMU even does such a thing (segregating applications by region)? I've never heard that before.</p>
<p>Most schools do have regional admissions officers. High school requirements and structures vary a lot by state, so it's a logical policy.</p>
<p>I would suggest going to CMU's website and looking at the prospective students page. If you can't find anything there, just email someone from admissions.</p>

Pretty much every school does this. Generally, the regional officers will tour high schools that they represent. (My regional officer came to my school, but I missed him/her because one of my teachers was an ass.) So I would ask someone in your high school first.</p>
<p>I'm just stupid and ignorant - I don't know how stuff like this works in the US.</p>
