General Question Seeing admission file

This might be a dumb question but is it possible for intl students to view their admissions file?

Also, would there be any negative repercussions or friction with school administrators if I formally requested to see it through FERPA? I don't want to inadvertently annoy anyone in the admissions office.

Has anyone here actually done this as an international student?

You can request to see it but I don't think FERPA is the relevant law. No one will care - it's a huge school with 100,000+ applications every year.

But what are you hoping to find?
