Expected....It's unbelievable how the university contacted me to apply to the program, but has the audacity to decline admissions. These universities are playing the number game to make their university seem highly selective. More applicants mean more rejections, more rejections mean lower acceptance rate. This week I have been receiving all rejection letters....thanks.
