Recommend writing to Dept. Head to enhance chances?

<p>I applied to New Paltz as a transfer (completed AS degree) by designated close date. I have not heard yet. I was wondering if it would help to write to the Professor chair (basically grovelling!) to try and get accepted. Basically, I hope to stay with my Graphic Design major.</p>

<p>I just was not sure about college etiquette with regard to this stuff. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks.</p>
