<li> There is one and only one good answer to any rejection letter you receive, dream school or not: “Your loss, baby.” Then move on.</li>
<li> If you are like most students, the process has now delivered to you a handful of admission tickets to the greatest show on earth. Smell the roses.</li>
<li> To the extent humanly possible, wipe out every assumption you have made up to this point about these schools. Let there be no reaches, good fits or safeties. Throw away all the ranking lists. Stop obsessing over selectivity or prestige. Treat all of this as a brand new game, and do not be too hasty about putting any school aside.</li>
