I didn't know that they already handed out rejection letters. Were you in state or out of state ? I'm out of state, and got a letter stating that there was a no decision on my application, and it would be re-reviewed in the future.
I remember someone responding to one of my posts earlier, and he said that there were two type of letters released:
1) that you were a competitive applicant and would likely be interviewed
2) that they could not come to a decision and would review you application again at a later time
