<p>Did anyone who was accepted EA get a holiday card from Chicago?</p>
<p>I did. "Your writing was some of the best I've read (and no, I don't say that all the time)."</p>
<p>Anyone else get that comment? We'll see if I truly am the next James Joyce or if UChicago is pulling my leg. :P</p>
<p>i got one. very personal, but none of brinestorm's</p>
<p>Mine said "Happy New Year" but I understand because she's the northern Illinois admissions officer, which means she gets a LOT of applications and that's a lot of different things to write. I'm content.</p>
<p>Yeah, mine said: </p>
<p>"Congratulations. And thank you; the thoughtful, well-crafted, funny-at-times way you write made your essays a pleasure to read...and they made it easy for me to imagine you fitting perfectly in the U of C classroom and community. I hope to meet you in the fall."</p>
<p>See, it's little things like this that make me love Chicago.</p>
<p>Mine said that they hope that I "continue my involvement with Amnesty International on our campus."</p>
<p>Mine said, "Congratulations on your early admission to U of C!"</p>
<p>LAME. I guess I'm not as cool as you guys.</p>
<p>Mine was very generic.</p>
<p>I dont think I got one :(</p>
