On it’s axis…
Hubby’s application to get into McGill University was REFUSED. He is, at this moment, sobbing in the bedroom.
God help us…
It was a very sad day for us on our house today. It broke my heart into a million pieces to watch my husband sob for hours asking “Why?” and saying “They don’t want me…” It was one of the most difficult days I’ve seen my husband through. I stayed home today just so that he would not be by himself, because most of the day he was quiet, then tonight he went into the bedroom and cried. It is just very sad.
I had a sinking feeling that this was what was going to happen. But to see a man degraded like this was inhuman. The letter must be on its way, thank god for electronic posting, so now instead of waiting for the rejection letter – they put it up on the site: REJECTED!!!
What is this world coming to???
Time for plan B… He didn’t want to consider a plan B, because he was sure based on his entrance papers and his letters of recommendation that it was a positive guarantee, we were WRONG!!!
My inlaws are going to fall to pieces when they find out. My father in law had a bad fall and is nursing a concussion right now, so this would not be the time to tell them that their brilliant son was just rejected by McGill University. WTF???
God grant me serenity…
Stumble It!
My prayers are wtih you. I know I”m struggling deeply right now. I can’t imagine how hurt your husband is.
God, why does stuff like this have to happen. I just want to lay in bed and never wake up.

Ohhh okay I’m really glad you have a plan B now. These schools…. it bothers me how they play with students lives. I’ve heard it for years and experienced it myself before. Since then, I’ve realized and learned and know to be true, that it doesn’t matter where we go to school or what school wants us. Always have choices, keep choices alive for ourselves. Never focus on one place only. That keeps us too restricted. And he deserves better than that. He deserves to know he’s damn good.
McGill..ugh!!!!

Is it possible it just has to do with volume of applications? I’ve read that all the schools are inundated with so many applicants, very few can be accepted. It can’t hurt to ask them can it?
Besides, isn’t there another school he could go to?
This was an application for his Masters Degree, so the spaces were limited. This being his first choice, and a demon exorcising event, there was no plan B. Not in his mind at least. But we’ve come up with a plan B since then. So all is not lost.
