- Notes
- Let this be a lesson in effective communication. "I regret to inform you that the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences is unable to take favorable action on your application" literally could mean a number of things depending on how you define 'favorable': "sorry we can't give you a scholarship but you can still enroll," "we talked to your doctor and you have 2 years to live so we can't fund you for 5," "sorry, you can't bring your dog with you but your girlfriend, sure." Not even mad I got rejected; I'm mad that an Ivy with a $40b endowment paid someone to write this while I paid a day's work to read it.
