<p>For future applicant this could be pretty cool to read. If no one mind we should post our letters (without personal info) on here. And also state what school its from. I haven't gotten my packages yet with real letter..so I can't post anything yet.</p>
<p>It would be nice to compare....PAC's idea.</p>

<p>Cushing sent an email with the subject "Congratulations from Cushing Academy"
Inside their was a big giant picture that was like people holding up signs that said YES.
Then there was a link to a congratulatory youtube video. They said the real letter was coming soon</p>

<h2>Bekshires I don't feel like typing up right now. It was longer than the rest.</h2>
<p>Haven't gotten the actual NMH yet. My mom called and found out I got in so IDK.</p>
<p>Well I'll go ahead and post the casual online acceptance letter from SPS.</p>
<pre><code> You have just been accepted to St. Paul's School.
You've worked hard. You've earned the respect of your teachers and peers, and now you should celebrate your terrific accomplishment of gaining admission to a highly selective boarding school.
Visit this site often over the next few weeks for updates and informa-
tion. A hefty package is on its way to you, filled with important infor-
mation and forms to be completed by you and your parents, so be on the lookout for it in your mailbox.

<p>Groton is too personal, maybe I'll post his letter next month :)</p>
<p>Cool idea, but my Groton, Exeter, and Hotchkiss have personalized things stuck in here and there. It would be embarrassing to post.</p>
<p>Haha! Who received Exeter's acceptance letter? They list 2 extremely diverse admitted students and then they are like "and hopefully ________________ and then they categorize you and make you sound all diverse and stuff!</p>
<p>Haha the personal part is the fun part...if you can post a chances thread you can post that.</p>
<p>I really liked Exeter's folder! It had this sick ribon and it was all shiny. Hotchkiss also had a very cool folder.</p>
<p>I can't wait till tomorrow when I get my packets!! stupid georgia..</p>
<p>I thought they said there was supposed to be a gift certificate or coupon for the bookstore in exeter's package but I didn't see it- did anyone get it?</p>
<p>I didn't get anything. Just a very cool ribbon.</p>
<p>Andover's said: </p>

Phillips Academy offers unparalleled opportunities both in and out of the classroom but depends upon students like you to maintain its reputation as an extraordinary school.</p>

We would be delighted to put you in touch with Andover faculty, alumni and students for their perspectives. Please call on us.</p>
<p>The admission Committee joins me in congratulating you on your admission to the Junior class as a boarding student.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Jane F. Fried
Dean of Admission</p>
<p>Then there was this little handwritten note from the Dean of Admission. I guess it's sort of Andover's version of the last paragraph of Exeter's letter.</p>
<p>My favorite acceptance so far was worcester. It came with a complementary water bottle. It is like a nice water bottle too. At first all I saw was the water bottle and I was like umm wheres my letter? It was like hiding under the water bottle. Bribery at its best.</p>
<p>Another contender was cushing congratulatory youtube video and giant picture of the word yes in the email. </p>
<p>Probably not going to either school but they still were nice acceptances.</p>
<p>yah, that's what I got thingslost! Look on the back of the picture of the admission committee. It is a hardwritten note! I didn't see it until today!</p>
<p>I want some SWAG from Exeter! The little silver ribbon was nice but it doesn't cut it for $41,000 per year! LOL</p>
<p>The day school at least sent a window sticker!</p>
<p>Ha ha yeha Cushing is VERY creative with their letters ! last year they sent us 5 dollar Amazon gift cards for filling out their questionnaire. Fill out that questionnaire people !</p>
<p>Hahaha PAC</p>
<p>Ya they need to put some diamond ribbons or something</p>
<p>Yah, I'll leave the money issue to my parents. I think they secretly hope that I don't go to Groton (48,000) after all expenses are factored in...</p>
<p>My mom says that Hotchkiss is a discount LOL</p>
<p>sigh. the rejection letter of andover was rly depressing.
they made it seem like they cared...</p>
<p>I'm sorry :(.</p>
<p>I'm trying to come up with creative ways to tell my parents that I need a new film camera and a new digital camera.
It is not like they really have a choice since I need them but it is going to cost at least $1000 and they just bought me a $300 camera a couple months ago. I like feel so bad.
They are also spending so much money for me to go on a huge trip this summer and then tuition for school.</p>
<p>Like i'm going to wait a month or so but I like can't get it out of my mind.</p>
<p>My parents are going stuggling reeeally hard to pay 20k for my education to nothing. They better get me whatever I want lol.</p>
