What's the weirdest thing you've received from a college?

Applying to College
1

<p>Most high schoolers in their junior and senior year recieve TONS of college mail to generate interests, but it seems as of late some schools have been making the mail unique... And in some cases, weirder.</p>

<p>I've gotten a DVD and a picture map with no words so far... How about yall?</p>

2

<p>The entire Washington U in St. Louis undergraduate course catalog. 8pt font, about an inch thick.</p>

3

<p>Rejection letter? lol</p>

4

<p>Harvey Mudd complete course catalog, and a handwritten birthday card from Miami University of Ohio.</p>

5

<p>I mean like before applying, where colleges mail out hundreds of letters/ info packets and other random assortments lol.... Sorry about your letter though :(.</p>

6

<p>SAT/ACT Test Date Refrigerator Magnet</p>

<p>Thanks WPI :D</p>

7

<p>I got a periodic table from I think Leeds? It even highlighted my favorite element, Tectium (which they had no way of knowing was my favorite). It didn't cause me to apply though.</p>

8

<p>i got a periodic table from Caltech filled with instead of elements, Caltech terms :p</p>

9

<p>A mini-handbook from Duke( I thought the school is wealthy?)</p>

<p>A seed-card to plant and grow wildflowers. It was really neat.</p>

18

<p>A book including a course catalog and various other info (students' essays, application procedure, etc.), out of the blue.
A calendar, soon to be two.
Several application forms, despite still being a junior and having no interest in graduating early.</p>

<p>I got the Richmond poster, too, but I have expressed interest in the school.</p>

<p>I got Post-it notes from Texas A & M.</p>
