Thank you; your consideration of our program application fee is a great compliment to us.

"We have unfortunately decided to deny you entrance to our program. There were many quality candidates, and we had to choose the best of those. We hope you don't die in a fire before the next application season begins."

I'm going to give you the same pep talk I gave myself this morning:

It will happen when it happens, and not before. If you wake up every morning saying, "this is the day!" or looking for signs of your imminent success or failure, then all you're really doing is setting yourself up for disappointment when you don't meet your own arbitrary deadlines. You cannot spend every day between today and April 15th doing this to yourself. That is crazy, and you will be miserable. Hope for responses, but don't let the presence or absence of a response dictate your day. Acknowledge your anxiety, but don't obsess over it and make it worse. Think positively, but realize that this decision is out of your hands.

I got this in one yesterday: "Unfortunately, the committee has decided not to recommend your admission and I concur with this decision."

OH THANKS YOU BOTH HATE ME.
