<p>Lillie Rose - again thank you for your insight to BU admissions. I for one did not read what you wrote as anything demeaning to others. As a matter of fact, we were all making the point that colleges are unpredictable as to how they look at applicants. So a very talented and smart applicant may be rejected for a lot of reasons, or really none at all other than the fact that they may have already accepted a student who is very similar. Or they just have too many applicants!</p>
<p>So don’t beat yourself up about it!</p>
