<p>My nephew just got a rejection letter from his first choice, ED school. He and my sister were quite upset (it is pretty much a sure thing that he will get in- not one of the highly selective schools).</p>
<p>Upon re-reading the letter, they realized it was a rejection for an employment position in the ADMISSIONS DEPARTMENT!!! (he never applied for anything like that, of course)</p>
<p>They think this school might need a little help......</p>
<p>Did the school really send it to him, not addressed to another person with a similar name or something??</p>
<p>how are they going to call and point out the error??? Are they going to call and point out the error?? Talk about an awkward conversation!</p>
<p>lol that’s kinda rare. How can you make mistakes like that</p>
<p>If someone applied for a job with my department and sent in her/his high school resume, I’d probably reject them too.</p>
<p>Too, too funny. What school was this from (unless that’s too personal)?</p>
<p>hey wait, does that mean his app is NOT where it belongs?? I’m sure you’ve thought of that…</p>
<p>My sister called the school (TCNJ) and they apologized. Somehow they got his resume separated from his application and thought it was someone applying for the job. The letter was signed by the Dean of Admissions!</p>
<p>Hahaha. I guess your sister should be MORE worried if they actually hired him to work in admissions. That would question my confidence in the admissions department if they WERE willing to hire someone halfway through their senior year in high school!!!</p>
<p>Are you sure your nephew sent in the right application form? :)</p>
<p>I’m not sure I’d keep this college at the top of my list, lol.</p>
<p>Just when you think you’ve heard them all…</p>
<p>Does your nephew have any aspirations to a career in admissions?</p>
<p>Hahaha this really did make me laugh =)</p>
<p>speaking of humorous rejections: [YouTube</a> - “You Got Rejected” (On Harvard Time Music Video)](<a href=“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9T1n7I47cBQ]YouTube”>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9T1n7I47cBQ)</p>
<p>^^ that is the funniest ***** ever!!!</p>
<p>I think it would be hilarious if when you went to check your admission status online and you got rejected that would play! (…unless it was me of coure 
)</p>
<p>It just makes you wonder how they will actually go about making admissions decisions. I can see at least a dozen freshman applicants being rejected because admissions thinks they were applying to grad school.</p>
<p>^^^ Very funny!! Now THOSE are some people I’d like to spend time with.</p>
<p>they’ve got lots more hilarious stuff at [ON</a> HARVARD TIME: Harvard’s Comedy News Show.](<a href=“http://www.OnHarvardTime.com%5DON”>http://www.OnHarvardTime.com)
