Ivy league acceptance?

does the acceptance into an ivy league university come with a t shirt or sweatshirt





i got into cornell and wanted to know whether or not i will be receiving this.

Ivy league acceptance?
No such luck. My son was accepted to a number of schools in 2006 and did not get a t shirt. After he informed Princeton of his intention to go to school there, he received a sticker for the car window.





That being said, he has probably gotten 20 articles of clothing since he arrived on campus in September of 2006. Mostly t shirts along with a couple of sweatshirts and a pair of sweat pants.





Congratulations!
Reply:No, but I'm sure they would be happy to let you buy one! You would think, though, that they might spring for this with the $120,000 tuition you will be paying them over four years! Congratulations on your admission, though!
Reply:Not that I am aware of. You can contact the school bookstore (or whatever store sells logo'd merchandise) and buy something, charge it, have it sent.
Reply:no
Reply:I know Columbia sends you a copy of the Iliad over the summer if you decide to go, but I don't know about Cornell. Just go buy one.
Reply:no





you will not only have to pay for your college education, room and board, and food expenses, but also for a lovely sweatshirt!!!





hey, the sweatshirt venders have to make money somehow, and if they gave a free sweatshirt to every accepted person, who would be left to buy them?





congrats on your admission!
Reply:Sorry, you will not be receiving a free t-shirt or sweatshirt. Those are for sale in the bookstore should you decide you want one.





However, if you attend Freshman Orientation, you will receive a free t-shirt at the Big Red Blowout.
