Are you allowed to call and ask why you got rejected?

<p>^^ Question above. I am a depressed wreck right now and i need closure.</p>

<p>Of course you are allowed to call, but there is probably no meaningful answer. They did not pick one reason and use it to decide not to accept you. They looked at the whole of the applicant pool, and selected enough people to fill the class. If you are like most applicants to these elite schools, you easily could have been accepted, and no one can give you a clear reason why you were not. If it is something obvious, like grades far too low, criminal conviction, etc, then you would know without being told.</p>

<p>Let it go and concentrate on your options.</p>
