Why Swat My Love? WHY?

This morning, as I was taking a bath to prepare for the day's Baccalaureate (however the hell it's spelt) I felt that Swarthmore has already send me an e-mail. Guess I was right.

So, I got rejected by Swarthmore College. My oh so admired loved Swat. I told you. Hahaha Well, I guess it's a pleasure to know that they found my application appealing... even they, for all we know, they might be sending the same thing to all rejects. (Maybe, there are different levels of rejection. I'm in the Almost-Ther-But-Not-Quite level.)

Goodbye Philadelphia, goodbye PA. And goodbye to my dreams of spending the weekend in Manhattan. Hahaha

So now I'm really thinking I might just be destined for USC, for LA and to act as set extra in Hollywood. :D Who knows? :))

And I thought USC's going to reject me.

Well then. 'Till the next rejection letter (which is tomorrow, from Duke U.)

Here's the rejection letter:

Dear Ann Margarett,

I regret to inform you that we are not able to admit you to the Swarthmore College Class of 2009.

Please be assured that this decision was reached after a careful and thorough consideration of your application. We know how much time and energy goes into selecting a college, and your accomplishments, both academic and social, are quite impressive. It makes the task of the Admissions Committee even more difficult as we realize we must deny admissions to many qualified applicants, like you, who are appealing to us on many levels. As you know, the competition for admissions to the College is keen; many more qualified students apply than we can admit. This year we received over 4100 applications for our entering class of 380 students.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to review your credentials. We greatly appreciate your interest in Swarthmore. I wish we could be sending you better news. We know you will find success and fulfillment as you make your plans for next year.

Sincerely,
James L. Bock
Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid
