Some schools still send them to international students. My daughter was accepted to six boarding schools last year and received one package with goodies, one package with lots of info (and a picture of the goodies she could get if she accepted the offer of admission and showed up in the fall), and one large envelope with information. The other three schools didn’t send a single thing - even an acceptance letter (that was surprising).

My son’s looks like it was rained on and then run over by a truck.
Oh that’s unfortunate, what school sent it?
It’s not the school’s fault. It’s delivery to our area.
Oh ok
If making the choice solely on mailed swag, Kent would probably win with my kid. Tissue paper with the school mascot is a real commitment to the bit (the stuffed lion in a Kent tshirt was immediately claimed by Kid’28’s younger sister, though.)
Andover’s box is pretty on-brand: a very nice, embossed folio with a certificate and a letter of admission. They also sent a sweet personalized video message to the applicant, talking about how much they’d like to see them at Andover next year. (As classy as it is, I think Kid’28 was hoping for some stickers or a postcard, I think.)
Lville’s box is out for delivery today. Last year they sent a beanie and sunglasses along with a handwritten note from the admissions staff. Stalking Instagram, it seems like the content is similar (but not identical) this year
I got a USPS notice that Peddie sent something last week and we all got the contract offer via email, but the box/envelope seems to be in USPS hell for the moment and hasn’t moved from NJ to points west yet.
I told Kid’28 about the @applying_again27 and he said that he’d go out and get crocs if the school sent celebratory jibits!
