However the student writes, perhaps they are upset because they’ve heard ‘blatant misinformation.’

That tells me they feel others have diminished their success in gaining entry.

The truth is words like safety or reach etc are not true things. They are guesses, opinions, perceptions-nothing else.

And one can’t control what others think.

The student should be proud of their acceptance and have confidence in their choice.
