Rejection is a bummer that I’ve had to deal with a lot lately. It does suck! From what I saw on Friday at the dinner and am reading here, the 75 competitors are all at the top of their class and deserved the fellowship. Everyone I met at the dinner was so cool and very smart. OSU’s pool of contestants is too big–there are too many people who lose out. I don’t know how they choose 25 out of the 75 candidates It must come down to the interview because everyone seems to be a 35-36 ACT and NM and 2300 SAT.

Everyone seemed super qualified, but they said they only have $ for 25 fellowships.
That’s where the bummer is. I wish money grew on trees. :-(
