So I was really torn up deciding between two schools - my top two choices. I recently however, was accidentally sent a very rude email chain from someone at one of the schools. In the email chain a couple people detailed that they were unimpressed with me and were no longer interested in putting effort into recruiting me. Of course, this was amazing news. Their f*ck up did me a huge favor and now I will be accepting an offer from the other school that actually wants me.
I'd like to, however, politely let them know that they sent me this email chain. Of course, part of me wants to make them feel guilty about sending that email along. I'm not hurt, but I am passive aggressive. I am also just baffled at the sheer foolishness on their part. Perhaps they will be more careful in the future and any prospective students they are unexcited about will remain blissfully ignorant to the fact that nobody in the program actually wants them to come.
If I ensure that my (emailed) rejection is perfectly polite in language and in tone, will any of y'all give me your blessing in doing so? I'm not worried about burning bridges because they've already done that and deserve to know it, even if accompanied by a painfully artificial smile.
