Dear Applicant,                                                               A
We regret to inform you that your application to the stated establishment cannot be processed at this time due to the fact that it does not exist.
After consultation with out mythical advisors we have also determined that even if it didn’t exist, the course “wandology” would be highly in demand and hence require at least two As and a B in any of the following subjects:
Advanced Spellcrafting
Mystimatics
Defence Against The Dark Arts
History of the Occult
Shaft Design
Your hand written grade sheet claiming top marks in “waving a stick about”, “ waving a pointy hat” and “watching Paul Daniels TV specials” sadly is not suitable for submission, however by applying through clearing you may be suitable of Liberal Arts courses. Alternatively you may wish to resubmit next year by tying your letter to an owl and hoping for the best.
On behalf of UCAS I wish you every success.

Yours sincerely,

XXX

Dear Duke University Admissions,                                                B
Thank you for your rejection letter of March 26, 2015. After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me admission into the Fall 2015 freshman class at Duke.
This year I have been fortunate enough to receive rejection letters from the best and the brightest universities in the country. With a pool of letters so diverse and accomplished I was unable to accept the rejection letters I would have been able to only several years ago. Therefore, I will be attending Duke University's 2015 Class. I look forward to seeing you then.
Best,
Siobhan O'DellDear Siobhan,                                                               C
