Today, I was excited because I was going to get my college decisions back. I put all of the letters in order of my preference. Didn't get into my first choice. Denied from my second choice. Rejected from my third choice. Wait listed on my back-up. Accepted for a job at Target. FML

note to you... a back-up is supposed to be a school you're sure that you'll get into classic case of inflated head syndrome

You obviously overestimated your academic achievements. Don't feel sorry for you. Tough luck. Maybe community college is the way to go for you.

It'd be a good idea to make sure that you easily clear the requirements for each school. I applied to two, and got accepted to both.

go to a community college instead of bitching. i worked hard to get into a 4 year university; you should, too. if it means going to community for 2 years then transferring, then so be it.

It's not polite to tell people shut up via FML or any place on internet especially if you don't know them. I suggest you grow up a little before heading off to college. This is all in good fun. Please calm down and stop freaking out over every little thing I say. :)

Wow, that sucks. I know a guy who got into a decent uni with a 56% average.

Hey, you get to make money instead of paying for tuition. Best case scenario right there.

Move to the community college closest to your first choice, and then work towards your transfer.

#20, WTF do you mean it's not his fault... Who's fault is it then. And #8 schools don't reject people because they are their safety school, that is absurd, Colleges want the best students they can get. Period. OP... sucks man, Good luck at Target

Aw :[ I'm so sorry! I'm a high school senior, too, and I know how upsetting all of this stuff can be. I got into my fourth and third choices, which I knew I would. I was suprised I got into my second choice, because it's a really good school. I should hear back from my first choice before April. I'm extremely nervous, I want to get in so badly. Only time will tell...
