- Mailed the graduate coordinator. This is what I got in reply. "The Admissions Committee has not made an official decision regarding your application at this time. However, you should know that we have made at least a dozen offers with several more applicants on a waiting list. At this point, the chances are slim that you would be made an offer. We appreciate your patience throughout this process and regret that the outcome could not have been more favorable." I get pissed off that it is not more forthcoming and write back, "May I please know how admission decisions have been made without considering all the applicants, as you say? Or has a decision already been made on my application and you just want to soften the blow of disappointment by this buffer reply and the actual rejection been sent by post? I get the doubt because the last lines could not have been more revealing. Please clarify. And thank you."
