rejected

@cutters my sister is a senior chemical engineering student at MIT and will be attending Stanford for grad school. She was very qualified as a senior but got turned down by places with weaker programs (compared to MIT) like Yale, WashU, and Johns Hopkins. It was pretty surprising to her, too. Basically what I’m trying to say is she definitely ended up where she was meant to be and I’m sure your daughter will too! Especially because UChicago isn’t particularly well known for engineering, I think she’ll be better off somewhere else

for rejection:
The admission committee has concluded its evaluation of applicants to Northwestern University. I am sorry we are unable to offer you a place in the first-year class.

Given the relatively small size of the incoming class and the strength of the applicant pool, we cannot admit all of the qualified applicants who apply to Northwestern. You should not feel our decision reflects negatively on you or your potential as a college student. We simply are unable to admit all of the students who present a solid record of achievement.

The task of selecting a class is a difficult one for the admission committee. We carefully reviewed every piece of information you submitted with your application. Unfortunately, we cannot provide explanations about individual admission decisions; however, A Statement from the Dean, linked to this letter, may answer some of your questions about our selection process.

The admission committee appreciates the time and effort you put into applying to Northwestern. I wish you every success as you pursue your education.

rejected…was rejected by chicago yesterday too so this stings. Does anyone know if this means I have any chance at all of getting into an ivy? My stats are in the range but my already low expectations for March 31st just got a lot lower…

Were you sent e-mails? I haven’t received one yet.

Hey just wondering did you guys get an email because I haven’t gotten one yet.

got rejected! Luckily i got in to Wash U tho

Layla, it means nothing…no correlation. Keep your chin up.
