It's weird that they still haven't finished sending out notices, given that the Open House is 3/16. I wonder if there's any chance of any more acceptances after the Open House...

Generic rejection email. I knew it was a reach but I did an REU at MIT and got a letter from an MIT BE professor so I thought I might have a higher chance. I guess not, oh well.
