<p>My D is a 2016’er. I do not recall receiving any parent swag at all after she was admitted RD other than the Dean’s letter and the calendar. We received much more stuff from state-funded universities where she was accepted, schools with larger populations and greater fiscal concerns. She is in a great university that was an excellent fit for her. She received a t-shirt and sunglasses prior to being admitted at an open house. The gifts had no influence on her decision to attend U of C or our decision to fund her education there. It is a world class university with great resources, culture and professors. This could be said about many schools across the nation, large and small, public or private, expensive or less so. I have a box full of keychains, scarves, computer bags, backpacks, pens, etc., bearing logos from schools that she applied to or was not interested in. Just enjoy your gift or not.</p>
