They could stuff the envelope with blank papers to make it "fat" looking so the person thinks it is a "fat" envelope and they got in... and they just say "No!" inside it.

from the class of 2003 (to be class of 2007), this was an excerpt of the stanford rejection letter:
"You are an exceptional student, highly thought of by your teachers and advisors, and based on your application, we can only agree. I am confident that other schools will be delighted to offer you a place in the freshman class; I wish that we had room enough for everyone with talent and energy like yours."

I would scream at the letter "If they thought I was so great why don't they just accept me like the other people that were accepted... and not having enough space does not count. I could live in the library."

that would be so funny, if I ever got a job at the admissions office of a good school like Cal Tech or MIT, I would totally do that...I'm so evil...lol...actually I'd write "congradulations..." on the envelope and "...on getting rejected" on a piece of paper inside...I'm going to get a lot of angry PM's for this...rofl

at MIT, when they send out an acceptance letter, they make it really really thin and label it "the small envelope".. all it has is the letter that congratulates you, and then u get the major package in the mail a couple days later (or so i've heard)

Purdue does the same thing.
Indiana University's general acceptance package screamed the words, "YOU'RE IN" on the envelope. Their smaller music school acceptance package read "On a World Stage" on the envelope... which would be horrible if it were a rejection.

Yeah apparently it comes in a tube with a poster.
now that's a bit anticlimactic...you see the tube on your desk, and it's like, "oh."

I still think t-shirts are the best
EMU's acceptance letter isn't all too great. It's like, one peice of paper that comes in a thin envelope, so when you get it, you're like, WHAT?! I got rejected from EASTERN?! and then you open it and you're like... oh. heh.

VCU has "Good News!" on the front: I was so souped.
A lot of money from UHart and Honors College admission didn't hurt either.
To the people already accepted to Rutgers: when exactly did you apply?
