How were you rejected?

[Leeuwenhoek]

Hi, just thought I'd start a series of threads where people can list how each school notify their applicants of how secondaries, interviews, rejections, or acceptances are communicated. Is it by mail, phone, e-mail, or a combination of? This thread is for rejections.

I was never rejected by e-mail. Its mostly by snail mail.

Over the remnants of a candlelit dinner with a half-empty bottle of wine, the Bee Gees playing "Staying Alive" and I was bussing tables and mopping the floors at the dark end of a 9 hour shift. My mail was delivered to the restaurant. The letter had sat on the manager's desk for two days. I wiped off the grease and spaghetti sauce, noted how thin the envelope was. It turned out that they had many well qualified applicants last year. I wasn't one of them.

most rejections are done through snail mail (usually with alot of waiting, although some schools have a fast turnaround time)

One school hated me so bad that they sent me two rejection letters in the mail (got both at the same time). 👍

Most of the schools do it by mail, however one school I interviewed at and another I was waitlisted at never did tell me that I wouldnt be attending their school this fall.
