My first reply started with a rejection from U of Pittsburgh- MCDP Program
"We recently completed a major round of review of the applications for the fall of 2012. Unfortunately, we were unable to offer you a position. The application process was extremely competitive this year, and the number of high quality applicants far exceeded the number of students that we could accept.
We thank you for your interest in our program and for your patience with the review process. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors."
