<p>Will some colleges... like... reject you if they think you're too good for them and might just be using them as a safety school?</p>
<p>OFCOURSE....happened to my friend last year....got accepted to Harvard and now he goes there, but Emory rejected him</p>
<p>Yes. This phenomenom is nicknamed "Tufts' Syndrome," because Tufts' got ****ed about being considered a safety for the ivies, and started rejected the best applicants.</p>
<p>Those bastards...</p>
<p>I'm just a bit apprehensive because I got my first letter back today... a rejection letter from Colorado College. COLORADO COLLEGE, for Pete's sakes... I can't even figure out why I applied there. Thank you for the consolation. :D</p>

<p>Oy! You guys are crazy fast. My mile times are so much slower than all y'all at 5:36. I am a girl though so cut me a little bit of slack. : )
Track has for sure been one of the best parts of high school for me. I'm not going to college with any expectation to run for whatever school I go to, but I'll definitely always continue doing it.</p>
