I wish there was a better word than rejected- something less harsh, like
not-accepted,
just not into you,
Its not you, its us
you are great, but…
<p>The word "denied" is sometimes used, as in "admission denied." But the reality is somewhat harsh no matter what the word.</p>
<p>That is so true, but when someone gets dumped, all kinds of excuses are given, soooo</p>
<p>Anyway how about</p>
<p>We just can't commit right now ; )</p>
<p>they never say * we're rejecting you* because it's not you, it's us.</p>
<p>They say with such a large competitive pool of applicants, we cannot offer you admission at this time and we wish you well in your future endeavors</p>
<p>has anyone been rejected from a UC yet?</p>
<p>How 'bout "dinged"?</p>
<p>how about....</p>
<p>"Were sorry but we have decided to terminate your dreams of going to this college. Now you may apply to an inferior college but you are such an idiot I doubt you would get in there either. Sorry you looser."</p>
<p>That is how it should be.</p>
<p>I like "it's not you, it's us" haha at least you can blame someone else!</p>
<p>some of my own better than rejection phrases:</p>
<p>"You deserve a school better than us"
"We cannot offer you the services a student of your caliber needs"
"You probably cannot afford us with how little financial aid we're giving you"
"It's not that you're not qualified, just that others were more qualified"
"Your daddy wasn't rich/powerful enough to let us to allow you in"
"College is not the rich choice for everyone"</p>
<p>How about, "We know you're just applying here as a safety, so we're going to turn you down since you obviously won't take an offer from us anyway."</p>
<p>You had the wrong parents
If you could only row crew.....maybe then....
The admissions committee was cranky that day, sorry</p>
<p>Let's just be friends</p>
<p>A lot of schools write "It's not possible to offer you admission" or "We are unable to offer you admission."</p>
<p>"sucks for you!"</p>
<p>Seriously. Get over it. A rose under any other name would smell as sweet. And there are a variety of things I could mention that would smell just as bad under any other name. And no matter what you call it, a rejection is a rejection. D'you think its really any better for the people now that we say, "The Oscar goes to..."? No, of course not.</p>
<p>Haha, arizonamom, cute.</p>
<p>u've lost the game</p>
<p>TJ, lighten up!!!! This is supposed to be fun while everyone waits!!!</p>
<p>We realy enjoyed our time together, but we just can't see us together in four years</p>
<p>How about</p>
<p>I'm sorry, but we have to wash our hair for the next four years...</p>
<p>HEHE</p>
<p>You have been waywayway waitlisted</p>
<p>We don't like you. We think you suck. Why you would even think of applying here, we cannot quite comprehend. But good luck in your future endeavors.</p>
<p>how about...</p>
<p>"hahahaha, to tell you the truth, we didnt read your essay once we saw your gpa and sat scores...we're so high right now...try again after a couple years idiot."</p>
