Most schools send these things so you are advertising their school...

<p>I don't think this is lost on anyone.</p>
<p>Loyola Maryland sent a car decal and on the back of the acceptance envelope it said Congratulations! It's so nice when a school sends a little love!</p>
<p>I'll join the RPI hat/decal party here...haha it's the only one that I remember</p>
<p>Decal from NYU ED! And a cap from Emerson EA.</p>
<p>it works too.. i was really interested by the school that sent me the better acceptance package and more informative and easy-to-use websites and stuff. it makes one feel...special :)</p>
<p>decal from Gettysburg RD!
As for some other, New Paltz gave me a coupon to use on campus coffee haha</p>
<p>My acceptance packet from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University had a decal, ERAU nametag, and even a certificate of acceptance (looked just like a diploma) it was really nice.</p>
<p>I got the hat from RPI, decal from Brandeis (I think), and a bookmark from Rochester.</p>
<p>My favorite envelope definitely came from CMU, though. "THE OFFICIAL CMU FAT ENVELOPE" (and in the brochure inside a little tartar saying, "I prefer 'big-boned' letter").</p>
<p>Only place I've gotten stuff from is RPI.</p>
<p>I got decals from Gettysburg & Colgate, and also a nice book from Colgate (wasn't expecting that!)</p>
<p>I also got the stuff from RPI and Georgia Tech.</p>
<p>RIT also sent me two large bumper stickers - the white oval ones with black letters.
One came with my admissions packet, another with a letter from the ChemE department. I also got a separate letter from the Engineering College.</p>
<p>Ive already started wearing my RPI hat, I dont plan to attend, but im a little proud i got in, and i want to advertise because its a good school, but not the place for me. Apparently the care package didn't work its magic on me :-P</p>
<p>I received a package from Trinity Uni too. A big envelope. Everything is superb except the scholarship lol</p>
<p>Elon sent a sticker, USC and Elon have fancy folders and pretty letters you could frame.</p>
<p>Eh. California's colleges tend to be cheapskates, USC excepted, it seems...</p>
<p>i haven't received any admission packages yet....only electronic acceptance letters
***....i want free stuff too :(</p>
<p>I have my MIT tube that also went under my Christmas tree!</p>
<p>MIT doesn't send out tubes anymore :(
Someone need to send out cakes!</p>
<p>I got a magnet from SSU with a bunch of important dates and phone numbers. I believe I still have it somewhere.</p>
<p>"..Schools try to stand out, knowing that students might receive several acceptance letters.."</p>
<p>Which you would expect.....</p>
<p>A professor's goal is to teach you, the 'school's' goal is to get your tuition dollars.</p>
