一直在联系的POI。之前目测被塞进备胎一直在等,但听说不是第一批被他拒的以为还是有机会的,
然而bad news还是来了。

贴上这封让我伤心的邮件:
Dear XX,

I don't want to keep you waiting any more, so I have to make a decision based on the current resources. Unfortunately we won't be able to offer you admission at UMN this year. As you know, I really enjoyed meeting you over skype and listen to your research endeavors. I have no doubt you will be a successful PhD researcher, and best of luck in your future research.

I am sorry I don't have better news, and apologies to keep you waiting.

本来悲愤交加不想回复来着,后来转念一想反正都被拒了,表个鲜明坚定的态度总归是好的,遂回复:
Hi Prof. XX,
I feel sad to hear this news. But I believe there are students who are more matched with you and more excellent than me. I have to admit I really want to be your student, so I keep contacting you these days and declined other offers. Anyway that probably would be a chance to encourage me to improve myself, to be a more mature researcher. More probabilities in the future.

Thank you. I can't resist tears but I know I should move on.

自己懂了很多道理,可是心里还是觉得忧伤。这个结果贴就用来纪念一下吧

三月快结束了,祝愿没有得到消息的大家都会有好消息!
