programs contacting applicants

got the same from Case. who knows what it means? i'm trying to not let programs contacting me affect my decision (unless of course they tell me they're not ranking me).

on another note, UCLA said to contact them after Feb 10th and they will volunteer rank info.

Ditto from Case. Though, mine had a "very impressed..." Maybe this is their secret lingo? I doubt it, and I'm not reading anything into it. Good luck all.

just so ppl who haven't receieved anything will come back in from the ledge. i didn't receive anything until AFTER match day (stating that i was ranked to match at program x, and they wanted me to tell them why i didn't rank them higher).

also, i know many ppl who matched at programs that purportedly send out letters or contact applicants (northwestern, etc) that did not get the alleged obligatory letter for matching. and this includes an AOA/253 person.

so please, everyone relax. the greatest day of your life is less than 2 months away. enjoy yourselves.

HSS has sent out its post interview emails about applicant ranking.

So Mace,

What does it say? Is this one of the three letter option things? If so, what are the different options?

HSS has sent the "not ranked" letter.
That's the one I got.
