<p>Did you hear about the merit money in your acceptance letter or in a seperate letter?</p>

7

<p>Mine was all in one packet.
Did everyone else get the brochure with student's holding up letter's that spell out "You're in!" or something to that effect?
Anyone else thing they should also send the same picture spelling out, "You're rejected?"
I know that sounds heartless, but I think I would laugh while getting rejected that way.</p>
