Thanks to the welcome call volunteers

The new initiative and process of welcome calls has worked out great. The admissions committee had a serious goal to reach out to all admits via email and follow up with a phone conversation.

The success must be attributed to the volunteers. While round 1 was managed by the committee members, round 2 had a lot of students from the first and second years who were eager to reach out to the new admits and help them with the questions and queries about the program and about life at Haas in general. So a huge thanks to all those who pitched in. We are sure this is going to be an ongoing tradition at Haas from now on.

The admits were thrilled to get contacts in the current student community. And for those who called, this was a great reminder of the path they had walked in the past. The richness of information and insight passed on to those joining the Haas family was precious. Great job in getting the welcome emails and calls wrapped up.
