Today, I was rejected from the University of Washington. My dad has been a professor there for 30 years, and is on the board of admissions. FML

just becuase youre dad works there doesnt mean you deserve to go there, if youre not qualified, you should be rejected, he did the right thing.

YDI for putting this as an FML. It would've been fine without the dad part though. Just because he's high up on the food chain doesn't mean you should expect a free ride through.

I'm with 1 on this. so much. It's NOT like he's entitled to let you in just because you're his daughter!

Maybe your dad hates nepotism, or doesnt want anyone at his work to think that he would take part in nepotism.
In any case I'm sure you will get in somewhere, and all your dreams will come true.

Ever stop to think OP might just be a shitty student whose only chance of getting into a good university is nepotism?

What, you expect special treatment because your dad is on the board of directors?
With that attitude I'm guessing it's just as well you didn't get in or you'd be running to him like a child every time another professor reprimanded you. Idiot.

Aw, that's too bad. I hear UW's been rejecting a lot of applicants, though, since they get so many every quarter.
Western Washington University is a great school, might try applying there.

Obviously you assumed you could just get in because your daddy works there and probably didn't try to do well in high school.
Your loss.
