Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got 3 different rejection letters mailed to me from the same college. FML
Today, I received a rejection letter from a college that I'd applied to 6 years ago. FML
Today, I got an email from a Scholarship Program reminding me that they had rejected me 3 months ago. Thanks for reminding me I might not make it to college. FML
Today, I received a letter from my college telling me that my instant tuition was revoked and I’ll have to pay almost twice as much next semester. Yesterday, I received the same letter. I guess they needed to tell me twice. It hurt just as much the second time. FML
Today, I was excited to receive a rejection letter, because this was the first company to even acknowledge that I sent them a resume. FML
Today, I got a large envelope from a college I applied to earlier. My mom, expecting big news, made my family gather round as I opened it. It ended up being a letter of rejection from not just that school, but all three campuses of the state college. FML
Today, I got into my dream university. I also got turned down for the scholarship and the loan that would enable me to actually go. FML
Today, I was accepted to the college of my dreams. Then I checked the address. Turns out, the letter was meant for my neighbor. I was actually denied. FML
Today, I received a rejection letter from a job I desperately wanted. Yesterday, the job offer I'd been stalling on in while waiting for news about this one expired. FML
Today, I received yet another rejection letter from a college I'd applied to. After crying for a week about how lousy I felt, my older sister gave me all 6 of the acceptance letters she'd been hiding. Turns out she's been forging rejection letters and keeping the real ones in her room. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Call the university and tell them to stop sending the letters. Probably an error in the system.

That's only two. Just start attending classes as if you got in. They are just testing your drive and determination. Once you get to 50-60 letters plus restraining orders plus security escorting you off campus, then they actually want you there. The same system works for finding a girlfriend.

Two negatives make a positive, right? So you're in! No, don't bother calling the admissions office for verification. Just go. Trust me.

Einstein's application to join ETH as a student was rejected. Later he applied to become a faculty at ETH in Munich and it was rejected too because "he wasn't smart enough". I bet they regret their decision now. Show them that you are better than them by getting a good education and when they come to your door begging that you join their team, send them two rejection letters two weeks apart. That's the way to show them. God speed.

They just want to be sure that you know that there wasn't some kind of mistake. They considered your application carefully and after thorough deliberation they came to the inescapable conclusion that you suck. Wits is a great school, but just suck it up and go to UCT.

My rejection letter said my application was not competitive with other applicants. I was told in the politest way possible that I was a complete and utter idiot. Burn...

Its better than getting 2 letters. One saying "Congratulations on being excepted", and the next saying "Just kidding:)". Don't let rejection stop you though
