Which schools call and send swag?

Anonymous
On another thread, it was mentioned that some schools call about admissions decisions mid-day on Friday and/or send swag before the decisions come out.

If you got an admissions call in recent years before decisions were posted or received swag, please share name of school. Thanks!

Holton HOS makes calls, usually between lunchtime and decision time. Many schools send swag including Holton, Bullis, SAES.

IME of watching this board for 10 yrs, the only school that calls before 4pm Friday is Holton.

Madeira sends swag. Shiny red envelope. Ours came midday on decision day.

A friend of mine got a package from SAES last year. And she got the tracking alert from UPS. I have no idea if they will do that this year.

Does Holton call every accepted student or just upper school? That's a lot of phone calls to make in one day! 3rd grade alone usually has 20-30 acceptances depending on the year.

Gds parent callers have been told to call between Friday evening and Sunday. We aren't even given information about who to call until after 4 on Friday.

This question is about school officially calling to offer admittance on Friday before Ravenna comes out. Most schools have parent callers that wait until the weekend to reach out to admitted families.

Burke gave us a chip clip, but I don’t take it as a sign : )
