In those words, and just that?They said,"Many applicants have sent us their applications this year, and some applications yours included simply do not measure up to the standards of the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill at the current time..."Ouch. On the bright side, they probably send the same letter to protective yield rejects: "What do you mean my 3.95/175 does not measure up to your standards?"

Yes they did!Ironically, the school I had zero chance at (Penn) sent the nicest letter.I have all my rejection letters around - I read them every semester for motivation God bless. I would just get depressed that I didn't go six for six.

I got rejected from Michigan...TWICE! They keep sending me rejection letters! I get the point! Don't worry I won't show up!
I got the sweet rejection letter from my safety school when I applied last year.They said "Your application for admission has been rejected." There were two other lines and that was it.
Princeton's UG acceptance letter starts with "YES!!" in bold and all caps, centered at the top, so I've always wondered whether they begin their rejection letter in some comparable fashion ("Sorry!"? "NO."?)
speaking of rejection letters, i thought they were all generic?has anyone ever heard of a law school sending a personalized rejection letter?im just curious..
