ABC, Director of Admissions and Student Recruitment,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to confirm my genuine interest in Baylor University’s School of Law. While I appreciate the opportunity to be on your institution’s prestigious waitlist, it is a seat in your establishment that I remain truly attracted to. As an inductee in the Cotton Mather’s Young Stars of America (thanks in large part to my conservative Baptist upbringing), I believe I can fill that seat admirably.

While many students are attracted to Baylor Law School solely because of its strong regional academic reputation, my interest is rooted mainly in the booming metropolis of Waco. Although it is common knowledge that Waco smells horribly, I was blessed at birth with a disorder called Anosmia, or the inability to process smells. I believe this “disease” (as my doctors so often say) will in fact allow me to thrive in your institution. After all, if the Bible taught me anything, it taught me that Jesus rarely followed his nose.

In light of this previously undisclosed information, I hope that you will immediately reconsider my application for admission to your full-time program.

Also, please disregard my GPA entirely.

Your hopeful student,

miy
You are way too funny to go to law school and certainly too intelligent for Baylor. Just saying.

I hate you for not ending my misery painlessly. But I hate myself even more for still wanting you, despite the way you've been toying with my feelings.

Still hypothalamically yours,

How is NO ONE getting dinged these days? The bar is starting to feel like a very lonely place.

Sadly, the Pacific McGeorge School of Law stopped accepting applications on March 15, as they kindly notified me in their 87th email of one-way communication. So that's a bust.

I should apply and focus my PS on how much of a raging radical queer feminist I am.

Or was Regent the super religious one?

So so religious. Maybe I'll do a PS about how I want to defend a woman's right to choose.

Noooooo, write it in defense of forcing religious organizations to cover birth control in their insurance plans! :D :D :D

From Wikipedia: "Regent University is a private coeducational interdenominational Christian university located in Virginia Beach, Virginia, United States. The school was founded by the American televangelist Pat Robertson in 1978 as Christian Broadcasting Network University...In addition to the academic requirements of the university, the admissions process also places emphasis on personal statements and recommendation letters. According to Regent, the school seeks students who are "dedicated to becoming Christian leaders who will change the world for Christ" and want "to receive a legal education integrated with Christian principles."

I don't know about you guys, but I'm thinking of skipping that silly law school thing and just becoming a Televangelist.

Nah, but my backup plan has always been to start a cult.

I know that Charlotte is still accepting apps, and in their email they are pre-emptively awarding scholarships, WTF?

I think I've gotten 732 emails from St. Thomas...Lord knows how much I'd enjoy 3 years in Miami with absolutely no job prospects coming out of that.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
