It's been a rough day, I see. 🙁 Keep your chin up, everybody!
It's ok, it was honestly a reach, their OOS minimums are acceptable I mean what else can you ask for, but my GPA's are not up to par, I just wish they would of overlooked it since I'm at their graduate school, and I would be a resident by matriculation, but wishes are about as good as my GPA's.. 🙁

Sadly, CSU was my dream school. I knew my odds were low but we can always hope, can't we?? I am allowing myself a few well-deserved moments of self-pity.

And why are schools sending out emails on a Sunday?
Long time lurker, and figured I would post here.
I just spent $10 sending Iowa my fall transcripts today at noon and then received the rejection email at 5:30pm. Bad timing!
Y'know, it's funny. Sometimes people get a little miffed when a newbie comes along and only posts their interview invites and their acceptances, and then disappears again.
But you came outa the woodwork to post your rejections. I gotta give you props for that. Sorry you are joining us under such crappy circumstances. Hopefully you have some other schools you're still waiting on.
...to the world of nail-biting anxiety.
Marsala - Hey, me too. Wait, me three. Plus three *other* rejections. Still feel like complaining?
ETA: Oh, my bad. I was second to post for Miss. Well, you know...
ETA2: Six rejections in 16 days? Ugh.
I'm so sorry TT!!!!
THere is still hope![]()
I would say it is probably way too early to say about Tufts. I received an invite last year in mid-January (for the 2nd interview date), so unless things have changed significantly, wait until you receive a rejection before you reject yourself.
I'm also assuming Tufts isn't interested, seeing as I haven't received an interview invite, and I wasn't particularly happy with some of the essays I submitted. (Major late-in-the-game writer's block there.) Also not unexpected.
I, too received the dreaded "happy holidays!" thumbs-down from CSU last week. It was my first choice school, but I knew the odds of getting in weren't in my favor (at all), so while I was disappointed to be sure, it didn't sting as much as it probably did for some.
The silver lining? I'm a non-trad whose initial performance was downright abysmal. I took some time off, got my stuff together, and started over. My "new" GPA isn't bad, but my cumulative leaves something to be desired. The fact that they reviewed my application (warts and all) in October and still deemed me competitive enough for the "normal pool" gives me some hope that other schools might be willing to consider me in spite of said 'warts'.
