nervousnelly Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I am guessing schools will not be put off of sending out rejections on Valentine's Day. Anyone think I'm wrong about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmcclymo Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Dear Applicant, It is with much regret that we are breaking up with you. We have found another applicant who is not only hotter and smarter than you, but has better pedigree.

I must be a glutton for punishment, because I cannot stop checking my e-mail, hoping that "someone" will be my valentine but fully expecting to get my heart stomped.

nervousnelly Posted February 14, 2011 Author Share Posted February 14, 2011 Apparently they can, and they have. That really stinks. I'm sorry to hear it. On the positive side, it looks like you applied to a good number of schools, so hopefully something will come through! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♀HealthMatters Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Iknownothing, Happy Birthday! I have a great, life-long friend who also has a VDay-BDay. For those who received upsetting news today, remember tomorrow you might get the opportunity of a lifetime. You are all applying to such amazing programs and I was ecstatic over an acceptance to a rated program, no matter how close to number 100. I know you will all do very well no matter where you receive your PhDs! Happy Valentine's Day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaraDanielle Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I made it through Valentine's Day with no rejections. But...no school proclaimed their undying love and devotion to me either. Just one letter, grad schools? Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just one letter, grad schools? Please? Maybe I will start my own institution and offer you all places. Why? Cause it is Valentine's and I love you all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KScrooge Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 At least chocolate was more readily accessible, thus easing the pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
