A brief e-mail along the lines; you should check the website. A formal, generic rejection letter. I was not a strong candidate in the first place, so all is good.

Check your website to get the decision letter: "Your application for admission to study at Stanford has been reviewed by the Admissions Committee in the Economics Department. I regret to report that we cannot admit you to our graduate program. As you know, the Department gets many more applications from qualified candidates than we can accept given our financial resources and space restrictions. Consequently, each year many strong candidates must be turned down. Regretfully, we cannot provide individual feedback on applications which were not accepted into our program. I can only assure you that all files were read by the admissions committee and decisions were made with care. I wish you every success in your career."
