what do you mean by not sealed anyway? is it obvious that nobody ever sealed it, or could the glue on the envelope have been of poor quality? I wonder if a school would really just not close envelopes... maybe I am missing something
I can't fathom any school not sealing the envelope at all... that would be ridiculous. It seems some lazy secretary needs some "productivity motivation!"

It seems some lazy secretary needs some "productivity motivation!"No kidding.But in all fairness, licking thousands of envelopes sounds painful. A classic Seinfeld episode comes to mind. I gues they probably use a wet sponge...They could just use self-adhesive envelopes to avoid any problems.
The sealed my denial. I guess they wanted to be very sure that I was not wanted at their institution, even though they said they were impressed with my credentials.
you should read BC's rejection for rude. There is a sentence in it that says "ultimately we realize that students who attend other law schools will go on to succesful careers" (or something very close to that). I.E. well we are rejecting you, but unfortunetly you aren't totally screwed, you may still have a career...No bitterness I swear it!

Yeah, I got the same, "we are impressed..." form letter.But how could they write that to me with a straight face after seeing my crapy stats (156/3.0)?I would have preferred honesty.Dear Shortckt,We thank you for your interest in our institution, however, your LSAT is average at best, and so is your GPA. We are just too good for you.You'd be lucky to get in anywhere decent with those numbers.Good luck! You'll need it!Sincerely,Joe AdComm.
