grad_fish Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 "In the end, it doesn't even matter" (Virginia Tech, Engineering PhD) ".....this has been rough" (University of Marylad, Political Science, PhD) "Seven years of college down the drain, might as well join the Peace Corps..." (Ohio State University, History PhD) I feel for everyone-I'm still waiting to hear accepted/rejected.... Also-there must be a lot of internet traffic on the results page right now-mine is slowww to load. Anyone else experiencing this? A wave of anxiety ridden folks...

polarbeara Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 This isn't a rejection, but I still thought it was funny. Someone got waitlisted to UW-Eau Claire's SLP grad program and wrote "Because you know I'm all about that wait, bout that wait, no admit." med latte, loopyunicorn21, Number4 and 3 others 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdcp Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I enjoyed this one: "You are an exceptionally strong candidate but we cannot offer you funding at this time": they are right. I am such an exceptional candidate that I'm going to NYU. Sayonara beggars. Wannie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharksrjawesome Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 So I didn't post about this in the results page because I was not sure how to report it: I got rejected from one of my top choices, and the rejection letter referred to rejection from the wrong program. I am not only unwanted in my program of choice, but apparently others as well. I was going to call them and ask what happened, but I feel that my life is already depressing and awkward enough as it stands. Womp. Womp. Womp.

Leah_N Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Virginia Commonwealth MSW, Masters (F14) Rejected via E-mail on 1 May 2014 1 May 2014 Please, like I needed this. I already accepted another, much, MUCH better offer months ago. I don't need to go to this school. I don't even care that they rejected me I'm so much better than that anyway. They got back so late. May 1st? Really, like, they are so disorganized like omg. So glad I got a much better offer. They can reject me all they want I dont even care like I really dont. so this person really doesn't care that they were rejected, lol lxwllms, scchia, RosyPosy68 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunkInDysfunctional Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 This isn't a specific rejection quote but if anyone's looking for a chuckle, search anthropology and read the outraged comments for UPenn, referred to by one as "solidarity and sass".

I'll go on to do great things and if ever I'm to issue a statement after that, I'll probably attribute my success over the bitterness this rejection has made me feel. Thanks."

They are unbelievable bastard! I emphasized in my application that I only want to study PhD, NOT MS. Such a crappy school.
