Chinese universities' over-the-top acceptance 'letters' include lotus seeds, singing boxes and the sound of pulsars
Summer is university acceptance time in China, and, in recent years, a “space race” has emerged between schools hoping to impress prospective students, excite incoming freshmen and receive some free online marketing.
Years ago, receiving a university acceptance letter was a straightforward proposition; a small envelope usually contained a rejection letter, while larger ones probably indicated an acceptance offer.
These days, for some schools, the word “letter” no longer does justice to their acceptance notices and “package” is a more accurate description.
