Out-of-the-blue email from adrep

<p>wow, crazypianist, you’re right. I went back to the thread last spring and saw this:</p>

<p>"waitlisted. Thank goodness she has four strong options. </p>

<p>I am really angry with Oberlin, though. They mailed her a letter right after she applied, a parent letter to us, letters from two professors and a personalized letter from the admissions counselor specifically saying how wonderful her essay was and how much they look forward to meeting her. That letter was…TWO WEEKS AGO! She is above their stats. My D quietly commented as she set the waitlist card down, “I thought they liked me?”</p>

<p>And this:
“rejected as well…citrusbelt, I didn’t get the personalized letter from the admissions counselor, but I did get the parent letter, department letter, ect. It is pretty cruel to do that, it got my hopes up.”</p>

<p>Boy, this is not good pr for the school!!</p>
