Note

TTPB: I am the one who started this discussion (about not blaming the defferals). To be perfectly clear I have no connections in CMU, I know nobody in the department I applied to, I have not had contact with anyone related to my specific field. CMU has a ton of CS graduate programs and I spoke to people I am familiar with in totally unrelated programs. This isn't because your lack of connections nor defferals. Graduate admissions are a crapshoot, I got accepted to CMU.. but rejected to a totally inferior school. Stop acting like the world owes you something, and given the admissions that you mentioned you should be in cloud nine. Very few get into every school they apply to, that does not mean that the schools that reject you are rigged against you.
