Lev Bronstein Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I had a missed call from a private number and no voicemail. Any other week, I wouldn't think anything of it. Would a school leave a voicemail, or at least call without blocking the number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socialpsych Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I've had two school-related calls leave voicemails. I have actually been advised to avoid picking up the phone when it's an unknown/out-of-area number--so they better leave voicemails!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tritonetelephone Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 No voicemail and especially, unknown number = most likely wasn't a school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my schools called from an unknown number, and I know profs around here register as "unknown number" from their office phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's crappy of them. Private schools, I'm guessing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who gave you that advice? I love answering private/unknown calls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synthla Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Who gave you that advice? I love answering private/unknown calls. I've had a couple wrong numbers recently that were really disappointing for me. But I agree, I'm not sure why you wouldn't want to talk to someone telling you that you've been accepted.

In my field this is interview season...so if you let them leave a message, it gives you a chance to prepare before you get back to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with them when they come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
