They sent you a scarf or did you buy one?

Has anyone not received their official admissions letter in the mail yet? I'm wondering if mine got lost somewhere....was it US Postal Service or was it through Fedex/UPS?

All I got was a printed version of the admissions letter on the portal, the scarf and a card invite to First Day. I was wondering if there might be some other new information but appears not?

Enrollment information is in the admitted students portal. The link to it is in your acceptance email.

Anyone planning on bringing a partner to First Day? I'd like my boyfriend to start feeling like he's a part of my business school experience, but also don't want to make him feel awkward / alone (I've heard that partners clubs tend to be mostly composed of moms / wives). Any advice for what events (if any) I should bring him to?

I'm bringing my boyfriend to First Day, and he's excited to go. I've heard from other female admits who are bringing their partners, as well. You should definitely bring him!

Side note - did he receive a partner letter from Booth, or was that for spouses-only?

He didn't receive a partner letter, but I also didn't list him in the "Partner" field in any of my applications (can't remember if Booth had this, but at least one of my schools had a "Partner" field that I left blank because I didn't know if I should share that information). Haven't heard much from any others!

Hi everyone! A newly admitted R2 applicant here. Did anyone go to First Day and can share some insights from the round 1 First Day?

Thanks!
