Applying to College

<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>You know these times, struggling to stay positive, finding everything you can to do just that. I received an email in a correspondence from Notre Dame, from the Assistant Director and this is the first paragraph:</p>

<hr>

<p>Dear Dominique,</p>

<h2>Thank you for your e-mail! I just reviewed your application and I was quite impressed with many of the things you have to offer to the Notre Dame community.</h2>

<p>Now simple and silly/almost pathetic question: Is that just a common opener or would you say its an enthusiastic personal reaction to my application? :P I can't help but think that the words "quite" and "many" were not that necessary in a formal message.</p>

<p>I like to think my application was out of the ordinary and regardless of what this means I will feel that way until the end, but hey, I can't help but toy a little with my emotions for fun. What do you think?</p>

<p>At this time, they probably wouldn’t get your hopes high with such message just to crush them a week later with a rejection. Good luck!</p>

<p>Thanks Hanita for the slightly cryptic reply, so you mean that in a good way? I might have to post another thread to decipher your message :stuck_out_tongue: But I want to agree with you :)</p>

<p>Haha yes I didn’t make myself very clear, sorry. Yes, I think this is a good sign.</p>

<p>Thank Hanita :)</p>
