<p>I got admitted to college, and I am really grateful for all the teachers and counselor that helped me throughout the admission process. Is it all right if I thank them in person and present each teacher with small box of chocolates? Will it appear like I am going overboard?</p>
<p>I honestly think that would be a wonderful gesture, as long as all of the teachers like chocolate.</p>
<p>Only thing I’ll be giving when I graduate is my middle finger</p>
<p>Yep! It’s obviously not necessary but it’s definitely a nice gesture. You should probably write a thank you card, too - it’s the most personal and meaningful present. Most of the seniors I know are writing cards and giving small items to the teachers who wrote them rec letters.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Better give both.</p>
<p>That is a nice idea.</p>
<p>The chocolates, or the middle fonger?</p>
<p>*finger, whoops.</p>
<p>I hate typos.</p>
<p>I was thinking along the same line but I am considering getting a gift related to the college I got into. Since christmas is coming up I think I’ll drop the gifts off right before break</p>
<p>Usually I don’t disagree with my parents on a lot of things, but this time they told me I should just get some gift cards as thank you gifts for the two teachers that wrote my recommendations. Not ok.</p>
<p>It just seems so half-assed… especially since both my teachers finished my recs / turned them in before the deadline and kept me updated on the statuses. It was a huge weight off my back.</p>
<p>But then, I don’t know what I should get them. Maybe the box of chocolates is a good idea… hopefully neither of them are lactose-intolerant…</p>
<p>Any other ideas? :/</p>
<p>Most teachers I’ve had like coffee quite a lot, so a small Starbucks gift card could be a nice gift.</p>
