How to manage others' reactions to your rejections


Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any advice for me?

My really close friend applied to some MA programs in Creative Writing, got into a handful of them, but it seems like funding is a little more up in the air and competitive in a lot of CW programs? Anyway, it ended up that of all her acceptances, she still didn't get funding or tuition remission. She's so unhappy and I feel so bad. What is a good thing to say to her?

I guess it depends on your friend's personality, but I know for me I hate it when people bring up anything about my applications, but I like it when they listen to my ranting sympathetically. I hope somethings works out for her though--lack of funding is the very worst sort of evil.
