<p>sybbie, I did the same simple analysis. Problem is, that quote is “a friend said” so it’s all hearsay. It’s not at all clear where he applied and where he got in and where he didn’t get in, but his family doesn’t want to say so even the information coming from “school officials” may not be accurate. However… if he applied early, those decisions came back over a month ago, and regular decisions are not out yet. It’s natural to ask “why?” in a situation like this, but I think it is a mistake to immediately assume he was moved to act over a college rejection. He could have had other entirely different problems. It is truly sad and pointless.</p>
