I've been weighing whether or not to call Boston University (it seems they have not sent out notifications of anything yet, except maybe one person who has a masters?). I've heard two sides to calling a department - one saying that calling just annoys them and they're not likely to tell you anything helpful, and one saying that it is helpful and it's an ok thing to do. What do you think?
yes I realize I'm probably over-thinking this and I should just call....but...
