After receiving my second rejection letter today, my reaction delightfully surprised my parents. They expected me to be somber at the least, but when I saw the negative head nod from my mother, that “What can you do?” feeling rushed over me. Rather than throw myself into a panicked frenzy, I really saw this as an oppurtunity in my life to find out what I really want to do. Yeah, I’m still stuck in my home town, but college, for some reason, always seemed like more of requirement rather than a goal for me. I want to write for a living, and that’s exactly what I will do as I apply for classes at my local community college in January. When people get their rejection letters, they need to know that they’re apart of a community and not stuck in some row boat that’s stranded in a sea of despair. There are many of us and when we don’t get the results that we want, we need to hop through the nearest window that opens up. I hope, pray, and expect to have the career that I want within the next five years, college or no college. Either way, there’s going to be hard work for me to do and I’m ready to do whatever it takes.

I got dismissed at UGA for the 2nd time, and waited a year after finishing my 3 only other classes at a community college, over the summer with an A average. I reapplied to finish my fashion degree and graduate from UGA and the committee said no. I was heartbroken. I can appeal to the President now, which I am, but this is so wrong and I am a Senior to.

This article has some good advice - taking the time to appeal a rejection can make a world of difference. It shows the school that you (the student) are serious about your educational goals and are willing to put in extra effort to achieve them.

I was a terrible student in high school... So, 10 years later, when I decided to pursue a degree, I had an uphill battle before me. With a low-to-average GPA and no SAT scores to use, I was rejected by every school I applied to.However, with a little perseverance, I was able to appeal my rejection at one school and gain admission. Then I worked doubly hard to prove I belonged there - and my efforts paid off with numerous academic recognitions and several scholarships (including one to continue my education at law school).

So, as the article states, rejection letters aren't always an insurmountable hurdle. If the school you want to attend allows appeals, give it a try... The worst they can do is say 'no' - again.
