Got the same handwritten "Thank you for your strong work" comment as someone earlier today. The personal touch made me smile :-).

Email mentioned that I should've already received a letter of acceptance, but I haven't. Living abroad, so this could be why.

wasn't meant to be. i was just about to break up with them anyway.

best rejection ever. so positive and chill.

I'll take a date, if someone's offering. Anyone in the Seattle area looking to drown their sorrows?

Yes, solid dating forum. Very good call. Halfway through my notices. All rejections so far. Stinging. But it is what it is. Anyone, want a date? I only take fellow rejectioners. Just a disclaimer.

One of my top choices. This one stings a bit.

Ah well. C'est la vie.

Awarded a 25% departmental scholarship.

Not bummed at all, to be honest. I know I have a long to go but I am also well aware of my potential and dedication. Will keep on writing and working hard and I plan on applying again next year.

Please tell them ASAP if you're not attending.

Iowa rejection = badge of honor. Proud token on my female hero's journey. Also, shocked no one has tried to use this thread as a dating forum...there is a lot of ambition/loneliness here

Standard rejection letter, but handwritten note at the bottom: "Thanks for the strong work."
