NJres nailed it (post #13) - there are two types of letters:

(1) We just had more amazing candidates this year than we could possibly find space for!

(2) You’re not good enough.

I, too, simply can’t fathom the rationale of sending out letter #2. There is a well known East Coast prep school that sends out the same letter . . . to 13-year olds! Really, what are they thinking?
