<p>I’m sorry 
Just remember though guys… that a rejection or a waitlist does not mean that you’re not qualified or that you can’t handle the UC workload etc… I’m sure all of you are amazing people, students, thinkers, intellectuals 
Keep those heads up!! And don’t let this crush you entirely, even if UC was your first choice… Those things can change.
College admissions on the most part seem to be very strange… (especially looking at outcomes at my HS - even the ones that get accepted sometimes make people go–> :s ?!?! )
I want to commend you for even applying and pursuing a dream - that itself is truly courageous hehe - that’s what I think (esp. to a place like UC with its uncommon application - I know so many people who look at the essay prompts and make a dash for it!!!)
You truly are all amazing individuals. And I totally know how you feel, I’ve experienced 3 rejections myself 
It’s all part of the learning process… and all part of maturing.
Good luck to you all.
May you be happy!!</p>
<p>Best wishes,
