Making some light out of any rejections we may have gotten (seeing that they are inevitable) which one was the best?

In my opinion it is not a matter. Rejection is a rejection (typically I saw -> there are a lot of great applicants for few spots:))

UCLA:

Letter 1:

"Please send us a secondary application fee and fill out our ridiculously long and asinine secondary application and please give us your high school transcript immediately and your chances of getting in will improve greatly"

Letter 2 (2 days later):

"We regret to inform you that we only take CA residents, but thanks for your money anyway and I'm sure you enjoyed calling your high school and feeling like a jackass for requesting your high school transcript, which everyone complains about every year but we don't give a rat's ass because we are UCLA and everyone and their mother wants to get up on our grill. Peace"

I got the OSU letter, and I didn't even apply there. I sent them the DAT scores and then didn't send anything else. It was a pretty reasuring letter though. I felt very optimistic, and two days later I was accepted elsewhere.
 
Can we please make this a vote for the best one? One tally for Loma Linda! :laugh:
 
USC:

Letter 1:

"Please send us $100, the most expensive dental school secondary fee, EVER, to compliment our tuition, which is the most expensive dental school tuition, EVER so that we can pay our staff $1.50 to update your status on our own computer system from secondary fee 'not received' to 'received'"

Letter 2 (3 years later):

"We regret to inform you that you didn't get in, but thanks for trying anyway . . . and please come again."
 
Meharry:

"We regret to inform you that we are not a real dental school, which should have been obviously by our ridiculously sounding name, and if that was not obvious to you, then you should consider changing your name to Mestupid, or better yet, Mesohorny."
 
Howard:

"We regret to inform you that you have not been accepted . . . we evaluate our applicants based upon numerous factors including: GPA, DAT scores, community service, penis size . . . Although your credentials were competitive, we had a lot of very competitive students this year."

I got a rejection letter from UF today:

"You may wonder what was lacking in your application. For the most applicants, the honest answer is nothing."


When I read this, I thought that's just bunch of BS. :eyebrow: Maybe that's just me.

Now THAT is a slap in the face.
 
UPenn:

"May we remind you that no one has yet perfected the art of human assessment and that you can prove by your own achievements in the years ahead how very shortsighted our Committee was by not selecting you to interview for our program"

Then why didn't you interview me?!?:luck:
 
ROFL, you have about 50 more to go, Ballsin.
 
I didn't even get a letter from Kentucky. I got an email with "declined" as the subject.

That's not really funny. (though a few of your others were) I want to get a degree from both dental school and FIT.
 
what did OSU's letter say... "we know you are an academic star, but obviously your star doesn't shine bright enough for us" lol something along those lines?
