Today, I was rejected from the University of Washington. My dad has been a professor there for 30 years, and is on the board of admissions. FML

That must be equally embarrassing for him.

Obviously you assumed you could just get in because your daddy works there and probably didn't try to do well in high school. Your loss.

And you expected to get in just because he works there?

Thats what you get for just assuming that your dads status was a guarantee to get you in!!

This isnt a YDI or FYL. Peaople shouldn't be getting easy entry to tertiary education simpl. Because their parent works there. That's just unfair. If you didn't make it then there is a valid reason. After reading this im sorry to say OP but you sound like a spoilt brat. Dnt hate tho

It's not like he convinced everybody not to accept you. Chances are you didn't get in for a completely unrelated reason.

Just because he's on the board doesn't mean you'll automatically get in.

Who is your dad? Maybe I had him as a teacher. GO DAWGS C/O 2014

GO DAWGS. For all of you applying .. Goodluck .UW is an amazing school

maybe he wanted you to get in to school on your own.

Waaah, my dad didn't get me into a good school, bwaaah. Grow up and live your life on your own merits instead of freeloading off of others.

Your dad saw your application. > ”Nope” > “Why? She is your daughter” > ”Just, no”.
