Yet another in a long line of failures?

In speaking with some of my fellow students yesterday, it seems many of them have received letters of acceptance into the program. This includes some applicants who were in the interview group as me ( Read more... )

People suck. People with arbitrary power over your life suck more.

i could not agree more.

It makes no sense to me. I just hope that your letter wasn't sent for some dumb reason and that it's on its way now. Piece of shit people.

I love you,

a possibility that is keeping me going right now.

Is there someone you can call?

cryptor_00 April 4 2007, 06:24:00 UTC

Indeed there is, but right now i am really not in a place to expose myself to yet more rejection. Right now i have hope. After i call i have none.

I can understand the whole not wanting to deal with rejection thing, but really, isn't dragging it out only going to make the rejection, if that's indeed what's going on here, worse? Also if they're for some reason still deliberating on it, then showing some initiative might look good. Also, you could possibly ask the teacher that likes you to contact those people and put pressure on them.

If it were me, I would call. But then again, I am a masochist.

I'm giving it a week. If monday rolls around and i still haven't heard one way or the other, i'll give a call.

I realize that this whole "solution" is illogical, but it works for me. Basically, i'm grandfathering myself into being ok with the rejection once it comes, which is much easier (again, for me) than just getting the info straight out.

Thanks for the concern, though :)

It's still my theory that the administrative bureaucracy has, in the style of most large bureaucracies, failed to update your current mailing address. As such, it's probably adrift somewhere in the postal system as it gets forwarded to your current address.

Otherwise, I theorize that they are sending acceptance letters in the order of most cleavage to least cleavage shown during the interview... as it sounds like the interview wouldn't have been useful for anything else.

i can agree with that
