Someone else heard back, and I haven't! Should I call/email?

So I interviewed at a school a little over two weeks ago and was told they would get back to me in 1.5 - 2 weeks. It's been a little over 2 weeks now and I still haven't heard back, but another person that interviewed with me (it was a group interview) told me they'd heard back about a week ago. I've been anxiously waiting to hear back and am now wondering if maybe I just didn't get the email? They said they would email everyone, regardless of your admissions status, so, should I contact the school and ask what's up? Or should I wait a few more days before doing so? Thanks!

I'd wait a couple more days, until it's a good 2.5 weeks, then inquire. Just because someone else has heard doesn't necessarily mean anything for you, but the school should stick to their own timeline. You certainly had to stick to theirs!

Check your spam box, if you haven't -- especially if you use Gmail, which seems to particularly disdain admissions processes. Good luck!
