Ugh, my first post-interview rejection was from Upstate today. I totally liked them and thought it was an excellent school and was really hoping to get accepted. Today comes the letter saying ' we basically have too many qualified people blah blah blah ...'
Have some people called them up and asked why the rejection after an interview? I would have thought that once you get to the interview, then you're at least a viable candidate. Was it something I said? or did? was my handshake too firm? too weak? It's hard to know if it's worth it to ask them.
I have an acceptance that I got after my first interview - whew! It was so great to be liked and accepted so soon, but I guess I was hoping to have other acceptances as well and maybe try for a state tuition instead of private.
Is this year more difficult than any other year from the economy, or am I just getting crushed like everyone else here???
