To (All) the Colleges That Rejected Me

[DubaiSis]

I saw her on the Today Show this morning. She did pretty well there. What I got from it was she got cut from several schools on the same day and was crying to her mother about it who shut her down as being whiny and ungrateful. So she called her sister (presumably the WSJ editor) to continue venting and instead of feeling sympathy was laughing hysterically and told her she needed to write all that down.

So my guess is she was venting the less than PC, less than grateful things that were on her mind, while knowing that it is all un-PC and very entitled. And BTW, it sounds like she's going to end up at Michigan. She said she had gotten offers to Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin and Penn State (odd choices IMO compared to what she was looking at) and hadn't decided yet but sort of grunted Go Blue under her breath.

Michigan seems to be a back-up for many Ivy rejects. It's an incredible school, and some of my favorite people in the world went to UM. She could do a lot worse. And she can always try to transfer into an Ivy later on.
