Envelope Signed
Is this just a myth or is it fact: ENVELOPE THICKNESS and COLLEGE ACCEPTANCE?
Is the thickness of the envelope a sign of acceptance/denial?
I've heard that the small/thin envelopes mean rejection and the large thick envelopes mean acceptance? Is that really true? I hope not...! If so, thin envelopes will be my worst nightmare!
There's some truth there. If you're rejected, you get one form letter explaining how there were quite a few qualified applicants and rejecting you was a tough decision. That's also true for waitlists.
If accepted, they'll include a return envelope with confirmation, or a schedule of classes and registration periods, or a dorm and food plan application with fee schedule. They don't want to waste postage and envelopes by mailing the other stuff separately, and they're eager to have you formally enrolled because then you won't decide to go elsewhere and forget to tell them.
So the acceptance letter is likely to be thicker.
Thin envelopes should not be your nightmare; your adult life will almost certainly consist of more rejections than acceptances. My worst nightmare would be--oh, let's quote Kurt Vonnegut--a C student from Yale.
