I actually got a pre-acceptance letter before I applied because I listed them on my SAT form. The letter included an application.

Late July or early August 1974, I almost gave up on it. Then again I didn't apply until late May.

home from school that afternoon my father played a trick on me.
He said several junk mail letters had come in the mail that day - asked me to review them instead of just throwing them out. Of course, they really came addressed to him but he stuck my acceptance letter in the stack.
I started opening them, etc. and noticed they were addressed to him. I was about to ask him why HE wasn't looking at them instead of me. But THEN I came across the next letter and it was my acceptance letter! Of course, like most fathers, he thought his jokes were always the greatest!
I didn't agree - was just happy I hadn't torn it up by mistake!!
My biggest regret is that I don't know whatever happened to it. I would like to have kept it and framed it - would have looked good on the wall next to my framed diploma.

I did not get one. After being notified I was not going to Vietnam, I drove to Clemson five days before the first session of summer school began in May of 1975. I walked into Sikes Hall and asked for the Registrar, Dr. Berry, and said I wanted to register. He said it was too late and there was no room. I called my Uncle Harvey (Tiger QB from '57 - '60). He spoke with Dr. Berry for 10 minutes. My registration packet was ready an hour later.

I got two: one in '87 (couldn't afford it, so I joined the Army) and again in '90. Good times!
