neuropsych76 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 So one of the first rejection emails I received was from school X. It was a bummer but it wasn't one of my top choices so it didn't hurt too much. It was just a generic mass email but it mentioned the clinical psych program (i applied to the experimental) so I was a bit confused about that, but I figured since it was a mass email, it was for all psych applicants. Now, several months later, I receive another rejection letter with similar wording but it mentions the experimental program. I found this pretty funny as I received two rejections but I only applied to one program. Is this uncommon? I feel like most people don't get rejected twice by the same school in the same year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farnsworth Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Last year, I received at least 2 letters of rejection from one school. I believe that I got 3 from the school. It was like the school told me "no" then just to make sure I understood they said "no" again. Then if memory serves correctly, they said it again just to make sure that I really knew they did not want me to even visit. It was a little funny.

wtncffts Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I'm not sure it's what you mean, but I received both an online rejection and a paper rejection from a school, a few weeks apart, and I think that's actually relatively common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is common as well. I received two email notifications that were slightly different in wording more than 2 months apart. Seems like they put me on the list for first round of rejections and second round of rejections as well lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

far_to_go Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I did get a couple of double rejections as well: e-mail and then paper letters later. Seems like the schools could take care of it with one simple message: "No! And NO MEANS NO!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owlie Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I got an e-mail from one school, then a paper letter. From the other one, two e-mails a week apart. I wish I'd gotten one from the remaining school. They never officially rejected me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
