I'm not sure whether I'm proud or not to see Northwestern well represented here.

Colleges also compete in the “least number of words you need to read before you know you are being rejected category.” Often the contestants need two words as in “We regret ... .” This year, however, the winner was Northwestern which began their letter with the word “After ... .” That, of course, is the prelude to telling the student how carefully they considered her credentials before rejecting her. It’s always a good bet that a college never starts off telling you how carefully they considered your credentials before accepting you.
