<p>Thanks for the good info! She went ahead and requested an alumni interview as suggested above and also just sent a note to her admissions counselor about an updated standardized test score being sent-- and reaffirmed there how interested she is. I’m sure they get too many emails this time of year, but it couldn’t hurt!</p>
<p>Part of what swayed her-- although hopefully not too much-- was that she knew of a girl from her high school who is a freshman there now. She got in touch on FB and got back this long, detailed glowing response about the school. Then the girl put her roommate on (roommate had different major and interests) and she also took a lot of time to write a happy, detailed letter. My D knows that there are happy people at any school but at the same time it is really helpful to hear first person accounts. </p>
<p>On the flip side, staff have been quick, warm and very responsive to questions but the only professor she contacted (music studio adjunct) has not replied to two emails. We’ll visit if she is admitted and hopefully connect with the guy that way.</p>
<p>Anyway, thanks for all the good info!</p>
