<p>OMG OMG OMG. Did anyone get the UChi “Top 10 reasons to apply EA” email??? It was so adorable I almost swooned! And then kissed the computer!!! And then shrieked!!!</p>
<p>(I said almost.)</p>
<p><em>wanders off to the Chicago EA thread to shriek and swoon with people who will do the same and not stare at me like I’m insane</em></p>
<p>Do you mean the ED vs EA thing?</p>
<p>No no. Wait, I’ll copy-paste it here:</p>
<p>If you are planning to apply Early Action this e-mail is a gentle reminder that UChicago’s EA Deadline is November 2nd, 2009.</p>
<p>Our tour guides created this “Top Ten List,” to hopefully ease any stress the college search process may be causing:</p>

<li><p>You can’t get into college if you don’t apply!</p></li>
<li><p>Turning in a college application is a time honored All Saint’s Day tradition.</p></li>
<li><p>Procrastinating is only cool and fun once you’re in college.</p></li>
<li><p>You are one step closer to winning a Nobel Prize! Or at least closer to people who have won the Nobel Prize.</p></li>
<li><p>If you turn in your application early, Jon and Kate will a) get back together or b) stay divorced. Choose your own adventure!</p></li>
<li><p>Every time an Early Action application is sent in, a fairy gets its wings.</p></li>

<p>9.That Hogwarts letter isn’t coming. This is the next best thing.</p>

</ol>
<p>Best,
Office of College Admissions</p>
<p>It’s really quite cheesy, but in a totally lovable way.</p>
<p>^lol
That’s such a cool e-mail. It makes me want to apply to UChicago.</p>
<p>ccp, i know ur gonna apply there for cookies. :p</p>
<p>Apply apply APPLY!!! Everybody!!!</p>
<p>I’ll give y’all cookies for it even if they don’t!!!</p>
<p>Aww. That is cute.</p>
<p>No UChicago for me, unfortunately.</p>
<p>ahhaha, im applying to uchicago, even though their aid to internationals is pretty much nonexistent. you cant know till you try, ey?
besides, i LOVE their supplement questions. i was debating between applying to umich and uchicago, but you can FEEL the creative/playfulness in their supplement. =]</p>
<p>Yeah! Comparing UMich and UChicago is like comparing plain white rice with a pizza that has olives, jalapenos, bacon, chicken, extra cheese, mushrooms, and really crunchy bread.</p>
<p>No cookies for you tetris! (Unfortunately. :p)</p>
<p>Unfortunately.</p>
<p>Well, the core would just be too much for me to handle. Bah.</p>
<p>
Is this true? I was under the impression that their int aid was pretty good.</p>
<p>really? iunno, i was thinking in terms of need-blindness, i mean, im a full-need international, pretty much, so its tougher for me?
im applying to need-blind schools for most part, chicago is one of my two non-need-blind schools…</p>
<p>No, Chicago is pretty stingy when it comes to aid for internationals.</p>
<p>It gave enough-aid-to-go to 43 internationals last year. More than Duke gave. It did give some FA to a few more internationals (Chi) but not full.</p>
