I didn’t get into Rush’s GEM program which was my top choice and it has hit me hard. I am questioning my self worth and well, everything. I am not a young person by any means and definitely been rejected from other academic ventures but I seriously thought I had a chance and that I was a good fit for this school. I didn’t do as well on the interview as I would have liked but I gave thought out answers to the questions. I don’t know why I am actually posting because I know it’s silly to put all your self worth on being admitted to a program or not. Maybe I am hoping to hear about similar situations that turned out better? I am even considering emailing the interviewer to ask if she can give me any insight. I emailed admissions already and got the generic response of we can’t admit everyone.
