<p>Urbanflop,
I remember wanting to know the exact same thing and almost drooling at the description :)</p>
<p>I got a package with a maroon folder, the folder was shiny. The exeter logo was in silver on the front. A bright red ribbon was tied around the folder. Inside was an acceptance letter, a hand written letter from my interviewer, a form where you could check off and send to them whether or not you would be attending, some travel info, revisit flyers, things like that, I think i still have it somewhere… that was a great day :)</p>
<p>Wow I think if I ever got that I would explode!</p>
<p>i think i just drooled… lol</p>
<p>Trombone,
Whatever history you took before probably doesn’t compare to Exeter history and even if it does, they need to make sure everyone has taken Exeter’s standard U.S history. Pretty much everyone has taken U.S history at some point. I think I took world geo, pop culture and geo, and two years of U.S history before coming to Exeter, doesn’t mean I shouldn’t have to take any of those again, they simply aren’t anywhere near as in depth.</p>
<p>I second candidate123! What was your first reaction after seeing the package? I think I’d faint and not go to school for the next month</p>
<p>Haha, well I had heard a rumor that we would get our results by email before we did by snailmail… so I stayed up all night the night before and refreshed my email every thirty seconds. The email came at 6:11am… I clicked the email and there was a picture of all these smiling people in red jumping up and down. I practically threw my computer off my lap and sprinted downstairs and screamed my parents out of bed. Needless to say, I was pretty happy. It wasn’t a surprise when I got the packet though, it was still so cool though, Andover doesn’t do that so my reaction to Andover’s acceptance packet was way more enthusiastic because I didn’t know I was in yet. It was really cool to get into both schools i applied to :)</p>
<p>…drooollllll
i so hope i get in. that sounds like a super secret initiation. and i like my initiations secret :P</p>
<p>Just wait for dorm life… talk about some super secret initiations… hahahahahahahah</p>
<p>its funny. you make me want to go to exeter more than my sister does. she steers me in the opposite direction! haha
atleast now my worries about everyone at exeter being all high and mighty but “not” are vanquished. :)</p>
<p>hahah thats great! Yep, were pretty much the same as everyone else, were just really smart, from all over the place, and full of ourselves (sometimes) but we do know how to have fun :D</p>
<p>oh no shes like that. but she just came home and now she feels like she can tell me how I can and cannot act. she needs to come off her pedestal if you ask me >( .
she also talks too much in discussion and is extremely annoying… Like hermione in movies one and 2 lol (if you’re an HP person)</p>
<p>have her as your example of what NOT to become. though shes not that bad if left with her own kind.</p>
<p>Thanks alot for the description istoleyournose for some reason it helps…:)</p>
