request information

Has anyone done the request information form from U Chicago and received those little postcard things asking you to write a little on various topics? Are you supposed to send those in...or is it just for entertainment?

I got those, and I sent in every single one. lol. They say to return them, so that's what I did. Another person wrote today on another forum that when they went on a tour to UChicago the guide told him that the postcards are piling up in the admissions mailing room and they didn't know what to do with them. Idk what they'll do eventually, but I suggest turning them in. You never know...

When we went to a summer preview day, they told us that every card you send back goes into the file they start for you when you first request info or start returning cards. My S sent quite a few back (he never got off of the admissions wait list

To be honest, I threw most of them out after reading. I only sent in the coloring one, because I thought it was cute.
