pre-2nd, Northwestern University, what the heck, I work for the place!
Ironic!
Ironic!

I finally got the actual reject letter from Wake, and it said something like: "while we understand that simple number screening can miss excellent applicants, in your case we went back and personally reviewed your application. We still didn't like what we saw and now you're really rejected..."
Something along those lines. Cr*p, it made me feel like a complete idiot, loser, and other yucky things. Truthfully, it did shake my confidence the way they worded that.
I have to summon up my energy for these last few secondaries (and the $$$) and try and keep my courage up.![]()

Paws - man, that really sucks. At least they could have made an effort to let you down easy. Who writes these stupid form letters anyway? It's like they have absolutely no consideration for our feelings.

Has anyone been rejected post-secondary from Chicago or Northwestern yet?

I just interviewed at Chicago, and they told me that they would only waitlist interviewees who were not accepted. Supposedly, they rejected only one interviewee in the past three years or something.

jdg222, I feel your pain. I only applied to 8 schools, have already been rejected by Vandy pre-interview, and am waiting for the inevitable rejection from Mayo. I am beginning to realize I should have listened to the resident who told me to apply to "at least 20." At the time, I thought he was just groggy.
About Mayo, they told me on Aug 19 by e-mail that they would contact me within one month, and I haven't heard anything since. Is anyone else in my shoes?

Do I have to post here that my first rejection is from U of Nebraska? I am not even good enough for a secondary application. There is some Weed upnorth that the Cornhuskers would prefer to pick, I guess.![]()

I got today my first rejection from Mayo. I am not upset, just dissapointed. They did not give me any reason why I got rejected, numbers, LORs, ECs, personality. They sent me this really skinny envelope with a generic, and mean letter.
Oh, well, I guess someone has to get rejected from somewhere.

Forensic,
Did you get confirmation from UVM that they received your secondary? I haven't heard anything from them yet and I sent it in Aug 5th. They have wacky phone hours so I haven't been able to reach them either.
Sorry you got rejected, but you've got interviews at other great schools!!
Thanks
